- When we use the ability to speak with animals they do not learn to speak, we are able to understand their barking.
- I agree that some animals speak too sophisticated.
- I am not sure which system it was (a DnD edition, Pathfinder or something else) but I read that animals have an int of 1,2 or 3 and a creature with an int of 4 or higher cannot be an animal.
Whatever system that was had a severe error as all PCs and most NPCs are animals. Hell dragons are animals and adults of some species have 22 intelligence as a standard.
