Language Proficiency

Language Proficiency is a feature in Rise of the Tomb Raider.

There are three foreign languages that Lara can learn on her journey: Greek, Mongolian, and Russian. By doing so she is able to translate Monoliths that in turn point to certain Secrets.

Lara's Language Proficiency can be increased by by studying Murals, reading Documents, or examining certain Relics. Usually murals will award her 25 XP in a certain language, documents 15 XP.

Greek

Greek is the only language that can be learned from murals, documents, and some relics in Siberia as well as Syria - all other languages are only present in Siberia. The first time Lara can learn Greek is in The Lost Tomb near the Northwest Border of Syria.

Mongolian

Lara can learn Mongolian by studying the documents and relics left by the Mongol army that tried to invade the lost city of Kitezh. The first time she can learn Mongolian is in Echoes of the Past in the Siberian Wilderness

Russian

Russian can be learned from documents and murals that were left behind by the Soviets when they were driven out by the Remnant. The first time Lara can learn Russian is in the level Echoes of the Past.
