Languages

Your race indicates what languages your character speaks by default, additional languages are learned depending on the rules system being used. In D&D 5E, your background may give you additional language options. In Pathfinder, additional languages are learned through intelligence and the Linguistics skill.

Some languages are actually families with several dialects. For example, the Primordial language includes Auran, Aquan, Ignan, and Terran dialects. Creatures that speak different dialects of the same language can communicate with one another.
