How many countries in the world speak English as their predominant language? What are they?
I don’t have it seperated by countries but here you go: Most common languages worldwide § Mandarin Chinese- 874,000,000 speakers § Hindi- 366,000,000 § English- 341,000,000 § Spanish- 322,000,000 § Bengali- 207,000,000 § Portuguese- 176,000,000 § Russian- 167,000,000 § Japanese- 125,000,000 § German- 100,000,000 § Korean- 78,000,000 § French- 77,000,000
Very difficult to ennumerate the Countries, but most of the Countries in the world understand English Language. In my own Country (India) all the educated people understand and study English very well and it is recognised as Official Language by the Government. The advancement of IT industries has made even Chinese to learn the language fast.
