Giuseppe Caspar Mezzofanti’s Zucchetto

Origin
Mezzofanti was an Italian cardinal famed for knowing and understanding a wide variety of languages. He worked at the University of Bologna, until he went to Rome to work for the Vatican library. Some of the languages and dialects he knew included French to Chinese, Coptic to Polish, and Arabic to Algonquin.

Effects
His zucchetto needs to be placed on the person’s head to be activated. The user is able to understand, speak, respond, interpret, and retain information in many languages. This even includes if it looks like scribbles or sounds like gibberish to them without the zucchetto. Although, the effect only lasts when it is worn, so any understanding is gone when it is taken off.
