His natural talent help Thomas to speak Italian , French, German language. 

                                                  (Filling the Gap) ...We had to learn languages at Ardingly, or try to. 

                                               I think it would be true to say of me that I was merely exposed to them. 

                                             It seems odd that I should have any difficulty in learning languages because 

                                             give me a few words in any language and I will ad-lib gibberish good enough 

                                                                                    to fool most people.

                                                                    It is strange gift and a fascinating one.

                                              alcune parole chiave in lingua straniera, manovrarle in modo tale da far

                                                   capire al suo interlocutore il significato di ciò che intende dire.

                                            Tutti avevano la certezza che parlasse perfettamente  ogni lingua straniera

                                                                                            desiderasse.
