"It's not that impressive. I like languages, we grew up learning all the romance ones, just in case we needed.tk run shoulders with the foreign aristocrats. So I've just got the head for it. You're missing out with books though. They can be absolutely brilliant. Unless assigned as homework.

He laughed, but that as exactly the strategy he'd adopted at school. "I actually went back and read a lot of my school books over the summers, once we'd finished those tests." He didn't mention that it was because he'd been locked up without anything else to read. Though Harry might be someone who got that. "Books are great. School work is boring."
