Traveling through city squares will also work doubly fast as they were not modded, so they are still only 1 movement point (coasts are 2).
FOR THE RECORD/CLARIFICATION:
There are now 3 major Incan languages. All those who speak with officials or citizens from a Capaca-cultured region will communicate in Capacas, all those who speak with members of the other tribes will communicate in Talchas or Manchas. If you communicate with an excommunicated Inca (eg, long lost scouts, boats), your points will be halved. New languages may develop as the Empire expands.
First communications will be completely in the native tongue. In order for you to understand one of the languages further, you have some options. Here is the point list for Inca words (excluding auxiliary verbs):
1-letter = 2pts
2-letter = 6pts
3-letter = 20pts
4-letter = 40pts
5-letter = 100pts
6-letter = 160pts
7-letter = 240pts
8-letter = 400pts
9+letter = 1000pts
For tenses:
simple tenses = 0pts
continuous tenses = 100pts
perfect tenses = 400pts
full tenses = 1000pts
Unknown tenses will be written as such: (sizncha t'cocha [kill])
That means the verb "kill" is being used in an unknown tense.
In order to gain linguistic comprehension, you may do the following:
Make a 3-sentence communication (stackable): +1pt
Have 1 tile adjacent border (stackable): +1pt/T
Send a non-military unit (scout, settler, worker) to a city (you will learn the official language + any local languages) (non-stackable): +2pt/T
Accept an Inca envoy into one of your cities (stackable): +3pt/T
Open borders (non-stackable): +1pt/T
Trade a resource (stackable): +2pt/T
Further, accepting an Inca envoy will give you immediate access to all terms relating to Inca governmental affairs (e.g., "governor", "province", "army").
At present, the points are:
China +0
Japan +0
Aztecs +0
There will be diplomatic systems in place as well, tba. They will partially depend upon your linguistic competency. There is also a communication route system that will be explained in a bit. I have work now.

) Only the Inca have played so far this turn.
