    DISCURSO (SPEECH)
    Which polyglot speaks the most languages?

    According to Guinness, he is retired US military Gregg M. Cox, able to read and write in 64
    languages (14 of them fluently) and 11 dialects. But, there are also extraordinary cases that
    were not recorded in the record books. Carlos Amaral Freire, 82, from Santa Catarina, has
    already studied 135 languages. "For more than 50 years, I've been learning two new ones a
    year. But I don't have the vanity of being the greatest polyglot in the world," he says. "Just to
    talk to my family I need five languages: Basque, Spanish, Italian, Greek and Portuguese." He
    is the author of the book Babel de Poemas, with texts translated from 60 different languages
    into Portuguese. He recently studied Low German (spoken in northern Germany) and Sicilian
    and revised five other languages. [...]CRUZ, Felipe Branco.
