Tongues is a priest ritual that grants the user the ability to speak all languages. The equivalent for written is Clarify.
Description
The Tongues ritual allows the priest performing it to speak and understand the languages of the disk. In practise, this means the priest is temporarily granted 100 spoken in the following languages:
- Agatean
- Brindisian
- Djelian
- Dwarfish
- Ephebian
- Gnomish
- Klatchian
- Komic
- Krullian
- Morporkian
- Tsortean
- Uberwaldean
Some of these languages (such as Gnomish) are not learnable by other means.
Example
You kneel and spread your arms in benediction. You pray for the Apostles' Vision. Loudly now, you chant the names of Pishe in the many languages of the Discworld. You humbly request the power to spread Pishe's Word. The buzzing sound of a thousand voices speaking at once fills your mind, but somehow, you can understand each clearly and distinctly, no matter which language they're speaking.
