The pundit who had mastered 18 languages!

There was a pundit in a king's durbar. He could speak 18 different languages with equal ease and perfection. Nobody could guess his mother tongue - however much they tried to.

The court jester took it upon himself the task of solving this puzzle.

He poured ice cold water on the pundit when he was in deep slumber. The pundit jumped out his bed screaming and scolding in his mother tongue.

Moral:
One may act /pretend/ pose while wide awake. But in sleep the truth emerges!
