Animals don't have the brain capacity to create intelligible speech to understand.

All languages.

The struggle to learn languages is very real so instantly being able to speak them all would be awesome. It would have major impact on my life.

I love animals but I wouldn't want to talk to them. They don't really have any other interests in life beyond eating, drinking, fucking, sleeping, and surviving.

I assume by speaking to animals, you mean being able to converse with them, but still without necessarily any guarantee that they would obey your commands or anything.

Regardless, easily languages. Why would I want to converse with animals? I usually just want them to go away.

tough one

i feel like speaking all languages would be more useful in general, especially since animals don't seem to be all that smart by our conventions (even the smartest species tend to get compared to children in cognitive ability)

of course animals not measuring up to what we consider intelligent might not indicate that they would be so dumb to make good conversation near impossible but nonetheless...

Animals.

Would love to sit around, watch football, have a beer and shoot the shit with my dog.

Would probably expound the already heavy emotional impact when they die by a lot though.

True but then youd have to hear more of the worst in people

Speak to animals would either just mean I can command them or send out impulse orders like Aquaman to sea life

Or it would mean I literally can understand their thoughts. But unless all animals get an intelligence upgrade, the conversations will probably suck

Being able to understand all human languages would be more useful

Also I think I would have to become a vegetarian if I suddenly could understand animals.

What if you learn your beloved pet hates you or is racist? Shattering the illusion of unconditional love would be far more devastating, imo.

Ignoring monetary benefits, language would really only be good for experiencing foreign media. I hate traveling, so it wouldnt really provide any other major benefit. Speaking to animals seems like mostly a novelty unless it comes with coercion to make them do things. Guess Id go with language.

All languages all the way.

Think of all the possibilities if you could understand all languages. For instance there would be no more need to look for movies or TV programmes with dubs or subtitles if you could understand the language they are in.

Or being able to read books/newspapers/internet sites in other languages.

So that is far more important than being able to understand and speak to animals.

Animals easily. You can at least use Google translate to communicate with others but who knows what animals are thinking.

Will the animals do what I tell them? If so I'd pick that. Otherwise it's kind of a useless ability unless you work with animals.

All languages would be too good to pass up.

Though I happily spent the perk point on talking to animals in Divinity Original Sin 2 because those conversations are too cute.

LOL at people that want to converse with animals, as if they are sapient beings that just happen to speak a different language than you.

You cant use google translate to have a proper conversation. I have tried.
