Animal Companion questions.

[Indivar]

So some skill questions. When your animal companion puts a rank into a skill, does it get the +3 for it being a class skill? Also when you friend gets an int of 3, and can take any skill, putting a rank in linguistics gives it a language right?

Yes and yes, but it does not give it the ability to speak said language, only to understand it.

If it's a class skill, yes, +3. If you put a rank into linguistics, it will understand said language, but might not be capable of speaking it.

[Shar Tahl]

It also does not grant literacy. ie they cannot scratch out words

[blackbloodtroll]

It can still read the said language.
