I've never looked too closely at the dedication, but now that I'm looking at the feats it provides, it looks great. I mostly play PFS, so I think I'm limited in the function by that, but even in PFS, I know of at least a few scenarios where this would have been really helpful to have. I may have to look at building a character utilizing it in the future.

I think that's a great character concept; and now I'm wondering if you would get a bonus to your DC if something tried to counterspell you and you were using different/multiple languages to cast spells. I think I'd certainly allow it as a GM if a player came to me with that idea.

I don't think you get a bonus RAW, but with spot translate even if you the only one that speaks the same language someone else can attempt demoralized.

Not with RAW, I would think that this would have to be GM discretion to get the bonus. It would be a cool way to reward a player that came up with an interesting concept.
