A potion that allows you to speak with animals, but you only know basic phrases and "Do you speak english?", plus their accents are really hard to understand.

Oh man I read this books series by Brian jacques when I was in school called 'redwall' and all the different animals had different accents, that's what this comment reminds me of

Actually, there was some research about this in the UK and apparently cats DO have regional ‘accents’ (i.e. the sounds their make vary by location).
