No human can speak the language of the spirits (called “Babel” by some, or the “First Tongue” by others) perfectly. A human’s mouth and tongue are literally incapable of capturing the nuances of this otherworldly language.
This Merit, however, at least allows a human to make a go at it. The character with this Merit can express very simple ideas (one to three-word phrases) without any roll. More complex communication requires a Manipulation + Expression roll. This roll may suffer negative dice modifiers (maximum of –5 dice) if the circumstances are tense or if the ideas communicated are based solely in human experience (i.e., spirits would have a difficult time comprehending the idea much less the language involved).
