Surprising Languages Most Spoken

Our nation's 2 official languages are English and French, so those are obviously spoken here. There are several dialects of French, even within regions, because the people hail from various parts of the country, and they all have a different way to say the same thing. The next most spoken language I would say is either Mandarin or Punjabi, followed by Ukrainian.

I didn't know that. I would have thought Chinese.

I would have thought it was French or Italian. Well, I speak fluent English and Latvian but I can tell you when I had to learn the two languages simultaneously, it was difficult. Then I have also taken some French and some German but know some bits and things about them,

Iam not sure what I would have guessed.

It surprises me, too. I do know that in my area, we have a lot of Montagnard Vietnamese people, but I would have thought the third language was Chinese, due to the heavy flow of Chinese immigrants who came to work on the railroads in the western states. There are a surprisingly large number of Japanese immigrants, as well. At one time, probably the 1930s, maybe German, Polish, or Italian would have been a big language, but I guess Europeans wanted to assimilate quickly.

That's really surprising. I thought it would be Chinese.

Really? Any reason for that? before was chinese.

I would have never guessed Vietnamese.

I thought the third most spoken language was Mandarin Chinese. I saw a video on YouTube not too long ago that said that, top 3, English, Spanish and Mandarin.

I never would have guessed that even if you offered me a million dollars.

It would surprise me too.

That is indeed surprising. I thought Chinese could be the third. As for Indians, they have many languages.

It is indeed a surprise! I wonder on which position is my language, portuguese...

Surprising about the Vietnamese.

I held my breath. I thought we Indians had overpopulated your world. I was hoping against hope that to be untrue. Well, it MAYBE true if Vietnamese is the third most spoken language at your end. But it may still be untrue because we have one language too many, and do not group under a single language. We Indians should seriously consider reducing the number of children, who end up looking for jobs that others can do.

that is surprising

Vieetnamese would be pretty common here too I think. I must research it. You've made me curious.

That is a surprise for me, too. I though it is Spanish.
