I have a character with the Hyper Linguist positive trait, ready to advance with rez points and interested in learning languages they don't know.
However, I've got the feeling the description of the trait doesn't fit in the rules for character advancement.
The text of the Hyper Linguist trait in the Core Rulebook (p.146) reads as follows:
The description of the Language skill (of the Knowledge category) in the Core Rulebook (p. 181) says:
In the Character Advancement section of the Core Rulebook (p. 152), "Improving Skills" describes how to increase Knowledge skills:
The way I understand this, in order to become fluent in any language, a character with the Hyper Linguist trait would need to spend 17 rez points and 17 weeks of study (one-third of 50, rounded up).
But if the language is a "human" language (e.g. French?), the same character could "learn" it (become fluent? Get the 50 skill points in that language?) with one day of exposure, without spending any rez points.
Is this a correct interpretation of the rules? If not, what is the correct way to use the rules?
