So, Harry Potter folks out there...

1) I think it would be difficult-but-possible for Hermione to interview/talk to every House Elf in England. But would she be able to do so to every House Elf in the Wizarding World?

2) Has anyone done a linguistic analysis of House Elf grammar?

1) I would be very surprised. But I'm struggling to think about which canon references there are to non-British wizards other than the other two schools, so it might depend on what assumptions you make about the size of the wizarding population, the types/numbers of families who have House Elves, the number per family, etc.

2) I haven't seen one. But I would be very interested in knowing about it if you find one!
