<<"You can speak Parseltongue, Harry," said Dumbledore calmly "because
Lord Voldermort - who is the last remaining ancestor of Salazar Slytherin
- can speak Parseltongue. Unless I'm much mistaken, he transferred some
of his own powers to you the night he gave you that scar. Not something
he intended to do, I'm sure..."

On another note, how could Voldy be the last remaining ancestor to
SS? Shouldn't he be last remaining descendant?>>

I looked in my copy of CoS and he does say descendant, not ancestor.
