Let me burst your bubble... Being an Indian negates all those qualities and intellect you achieved from learning those languages.

In short if you are Indian you'll be stinky, suffering from malnutrition with low IQ equal to buffalo

FYI I can read write 7 language, speak 11 including Mandarin but my IQ is still below 35

How you guys test your IQ?

For Westerners learning a second language is a big deal, for Indians its second nature.

We learn three languages in school and pick up the rest on the way.

Think of languages as tunnels, allowing data to go through. The more tunnels you have the more data you can simultaneously cram through. You will have a higher capacity, allowing you to see more; hear more, learn more and at a faster pace than the average Joe who knows only one language with access to just one tunnel for its data at any given time.
