The whole family is an experiment by their father that geniuses are made not born. He taught them from an early age chess, multiple languages - all sorts of different things right from the start. The result, two grandmasters and one just a tiny bit behind that designation. And, like you see she is fluent in multiple languages.

Where are electronic clocks, computer screen, auto focus? It's not in 2006, but 1906 I think. Perhaps Pillsbury is somewhere around there.

@raggazzo21 Or she loved the game the most and worked the hardest...

@schusterlehrling Toyota is recalling lots of cars. Cars must not be very stable in their function.

Electronic clocks are not very stable in their function.

Today i had the timer going from 0,01 min 0,02 without my opponent even moving.

I lost on time, but even my oppnent refused to accet victory.

She also speaks German, English, French and Spanish and Esperanto fluently,a s do her sisters.

His own experiment proves him wrong. Judit became much much better than the rest, so good that she competes with the top man. And not because she was trained differently, but because she is more gifted by nature.

just about whoever could become a gm with correct training, setting the bar for ''geniuses'' a bit low there, try a kasparov

SHE NEEDS TO BE BUTT REAMED..

So Judit Polgar speaks Russian too? That's interesting, Hungarian is not a Slavic language and I see no reason for her to know it other than chess. That's pretty impressive.
