Ten-year-old Schoolboy can speak Eleven languages

Arpan Sharma has astounded his teachers by learning to speak an incredible 10 languages on top of English.
The primary school pupil has taught himself five of them by using interactive, multimedia CD-ROMs and has been fluent in another since he was practically able to talk.
Aside from his mother tongue, Arpan speaks Hindi, after learning it from his parents, and has learnt French, Spanish, German and Italian in school.
In addition he also speaks Thai, Swahili, Polish, Chinese Mandarin and is currently studying the difficult Lugandan language of Uganda. Language staff at the 560 pupil, fee-paying Blue Coat's School in Edgbaston, Birmingham, described Arpan's talents as "extraordinary".
