    China has 1.4 billion people but it does not mean all of them can speak Chinese or Mandarin. Most Taiwanese can speak Mandarin but a lot Hong Kongers cannot speak Mandarin because their mother tongue and common language is Cantonese. If Chinese is ranked the most spoken language, it is not an international language. If you visit Asia, besides China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau, you can't use Chinese to communicate with the immigration and customs officers. You still need to use English at the restaurants, shops, tourist spots and night markets. Even in Thailand, which has 9 million ethnic Chinese, you can't speak to them in Chinese because they speak Thai. And those who can speak their mother tongue, they speak Teochew. Chinese Mandarin and Chinese Teochew are like German and French

      Come on! This is misleading. Knowing a language and speaking it are two different things. In Africa probably English is spoken by only about 10% of the populations of former British colonies. Mostly the educated elites. But the masses still speak local indigenous languages. Indeed the most spoken language in Nigeria is not English but Hausa (50m native speakers + 50m as a lingua franca). In East Africa it is Swahili. In South Africa, Zulu. Even the elites speak it badly. To say that an official language is necessarily a "most spoken" language is as absurd as saying in 1150 Norman French was the most spoken language in England. Or that Latin was the most spoken language in Europe in 1720.

    Sanskrit, is another language which is known to be mother of many European languages, particularly German language, was evolved in the ancient India. Most of the ancient manuscripts of the Indian pre-dated history were found to be written in Sanskrit
    In addition, there is one more language called TAMIL, which is spoken in the Indian state of Tamilnadu and also in many parts of the world, such as in Singapore and other south-east Asian countries. And incidentally TAMIL happens to be the oldest language of the entire world ❤❤
