4) He Can Speak 18 Languages
Wolverine might have a reputation as a savage, but he’s still got some pretty nifty cerebral skills. He’s been alive for over a hundred years – he’s had a lot of time to educate himself, after all.
One of his unlikely talents is the fact that he can speak an incredible 18 languages. Apart from English, of course, he’s adept at both Japanese and French. These two are easy to explain; Wolvie has visited Japan on several occasions and he’s a Canadian and has spent time in Quebec. The other languages that he’s fluent in are Russian, Chinese, Cheyenne, Spanish, Arabic, and Lakota. He also knows a little of Filipino, Thai, Vietnamese, German, Italian, Portuguese, Korean, Hindi, and Persian.
In fact, Wolverine has such a first rate mind that his mental state was once described as “equivalent [to] an Olympic-level gymnast performing a gold medal routine while simultaneously beating four chess computers in his head.”
