By means of this spell, you gain the knowledge of any one language you have heard or read within the last day. You can touch any number of creatures during the casting to grant them the same ability. You must divide the duration of the spell evenly among all the creatures touched during the casting. The language that the caster chooses could be one you already know, in which case you do not need to consider yourself one of the targets.

This magic grants a recipient complete fluency in the language learned during the duration of this spell. This spell does not allow creatures that cannot speak to talk. Barbarians and other illiterate creatures still gain the ability to read the language granted during the duration of the spell. Only one language at a time can be known by this spell. If one uses this spell again while it is still active from a preceding casting, the second language overwrites the older incantation and removes the earlier language. Use of Woda's translator also grants temporary use of the Decipher Script skill as if the person had been trained in that skill, with a +5 competence bonus.
