babyleans Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 Hi guys, so.. what are the most widely spoken languages in the world? I reckon English is one of them but it certainly isn't the most popular because mandarin has more speakers. Apart from English and Mandarin, what other languages are widely spoken?

Cap2jitsu Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 I'd also say Cantonese, Spanish, French, and German as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosa Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 Apart from English Language, I would have to go for the most obvious which would be Chinese, Spanish and French. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May102014 Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 I live America and although English is the primary language of the country, I have notice the Spanish language becoming more prominent. There are many places I visit where I see the English and Spanish translations. When I call for customer service to most stores, I am greeted with the option of picking English or Spanish. So, I think Spanish is a widely use language around the world as well as French. The French language is spoke in many countries around the world.

Trellum Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 It has to be chinese, english and spaish. No doubt about it. I' dare to say the language coming next in the list would probably french. I speak 2 out of the 3 most spoken languages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PashaR Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 According to one source, Mandarin is #1, Spanish is #2, and English is #3. I'm surprised no one has mentioned Hindi, which is #4. Arabic is #5. I was surprised to see Portuguese as #6, probably because of Brazil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linguaholic Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Yes, Hindi is definitely in the Top 5 as well, but most people seem to forget about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
