Harry can speak what we find out in HBP is a language passed *genetically* through the Slytherin line! What could that mean? I think all this is connected to the gleam. Harry has a 'bit of Voldemort' inside himself, and Voldemort has a bit of Harry now."   <Snip a lot>

 

 

CH3ed:
 I agree with Jen. DD told Harry that LV transferred some of his "power" to Harry in that failed AK. From DD's explanation to Harry in HBP that LV's damaged soul takes nothing away from his magical power, it is quite clear that soul and power are two different things. I think Harry has some of LV's power but not his soul; therefore, he is not one of LV's horcruxes.
