I believe den den mushi could serve as translators. Chopper proves that animals understand other animals and can communicate in any tongue and understand each other. As Den Den mushi have the capability to reproduce any language then they should be able to serve as a translator amongst animals and people. I'd like to get a staff opinion on this.

Gonna repeat my argument in the c-box here for formality sake:

All den den mushi do is repeat exactly what was said into another den den mushi; same tone, pitch, etc. They don't have to actually translate anything, they just repeat it. Like if you spoke French to me and I said the same thing in French to someone else. I don't know French and can't understand what I'm saying, but I still can say it anyways. There is no translation involved.

This is the same case with den den; they just repeat, they don't translate. If a dog barked into one den den mushi, the other would bark. It wouldn't say something like "Give me the hot dog".

No I am not saying Den Den translate languages. I am saying Den Den as animals understand other animals (given choppers proof of this) and they have the ability to reproduce the same sounds as humans meaning if a den den can understand a human it would serve as a translator. Now if you get a Den Den Mushi NPC wouldn't this be possible?

What if you gave a Den Den Mushi NPC high intelligence wouldn't it be feasible?

not really and we haven't seen den dens with that level of intelligence at all they're the epitome of the phrase "monkey see, monkey do.
