Is it possible to learn this power?
Anybody whose able to speak another language than english can do it.
But that does exclude a lot of americans.
you don't even actually have to speak another language. just make shit up. babble like a fundie "speaking in tongues" and repeat "no speakey eni englche"... helps if you can go a little castor-eyed and pull out the crazed weirdo look.
that's how i reply to talkative hobos on the street
You only need a couple of phrases (and a practiced accent/pronunciation) to seem believable enough for them to give up
This. The sayings we all know can easily be repurposed. I am sorry I don't speak [english]. No I do not understand you. Thank you. Where is the train.
I may have done this to American tourists in Europe.
