Harry as Parselmouth

Didn't Dumbledore explain to Harry in Book 4 that he may be a 
parselmouth because some of Voldemort's powers/characteristics 
transferred to Harry when Voldemort tried to kill Harry as a baby.  
That explains how Harry can be a parselmouth without being heir to 
Slytherin or a snake animagus (I think he will be the Gryffindor lion 
as an animagus).
