Svensson nodded. "That's right, they do run Gringotts."

Hmmm...Goblins... Miranda raised her hand. "Sir, Goblins have their own language called Gobbledegook..." Hehe.
"Gobbledegook! Yes!" Svensson pointed at the girl who had said that. "Most goblins do speak Gobbledegook, though some of them also know English."

'Aren't they like really smart?' She asked raising her hand of course. Goblins were Ravenclaw smart.
Lars tilted his head to consider that suggestion. "I've never heard of goblins in general being exceptionally smart, but I'm sure there are smart goblins and goblins of average intelligence, just as there's a variety of intellect among humans," he said.

"They had ep-ep-epic wuhh-wars," he offered, letting his hand drop back down.
Voila! There was the answer Svensson needed to move on to the next topic. "Very good, Jack--Jake!" he exclaimed. "In the past, goblins have--and probably with good reason--rebelled against the magical community."

He paused to let anyone who was taking notes write that down, then asked another question. "Can anyone tell me when the first goblin rebellion was?"
