Mini #011 - Parseltongue 101

Welcome, honorary Hogwarts students, to “Parseltongue 101.” Parseltongue is, as you almost certainly already know, the ability to speak with snakes. Many powerful wizards, like Harry Potter and Voldemort, were well-known for their ability to speak Parseltongue. For natural parseltongues, it's possible to speak it without even realizing. However, since so much of the snake language sounds so similar to an outsider, it can be hard to pick it up if you're not naturally gifted. But contrary to many other magical educators, I myself believe that even No-Maj folks can learn to talk to snakes if they're willing to put in the work. Sorry, if there are any British wizards and witches in the audience, I meant Muggles. You probably knew that. Anyway, in this session, we'll be learning the basics of how to speak parseltongue. I'll be asking you some questions, and the correct answer to each question will contain at least one S—and to get into the parseltongue mindset, which is sort of the first step for non-native speakers, I encourage you all to REALLY lean on those Ss.
