sensible person will first ask what does Russia stand to gain from you knowing that their language has more speakers within Europe thatโ€™ll make them pay someone on NL to write about it .

If you give one meaningful reason, then you get sense if not then you no get sense .

Imagine saying Russian dialect spoken more than English, French and Spanish languages cheesy
You won't understand. Same as when they tell you Mandarin is the most spoken Language in the world bcus of Chinese population and the ones they get from Hong Kong, Taiwan and co.

You obviously have never traveled to Europe before.
Some of you just stay in your caves and start to push out primitive opinions.

You can fact check instead of thinking it's a propaganda. Ask yourself between Russia and UK which is more populated. You don't just end there some part of USSR speak the Russian language so those countries today part of them speak Russian language like in Ukraine for an example.
The person doesn't likely know how big the USSR was.
Re: Most Spoken Native Languages In Europe (Photos) by Kalulu44: 7:42pm On Feb 20
Why are many people surprised by this statistics. Growing up, I have always thought English is the most spoken language in the world, but the day I googled it and saw Mandarin which belongs to China. I marvel, and after more research, the reason wasn't far fetched. China has the highest population in the world of almost 2b people.
If in over 200+ countries of the world estimated at 8b+ and only China have 25% of it, then why should I doubt their language been the most spoken. Not to talk they still have those who speaks it from their neighbouring countries of Hong Kong, Taiwan and co.
.
So in case of Russia, they are the highest population in Europe. And it's a given they will be the most spoken language. Not to talk of most of the countries that split from them that still marginally speaks Russia. So it's a no brainier that they will be the most spoken language.
But in terms of language spread all over the world, then I have to give it to English.
I hope my explanation is understood

But it's the truth. Russian is the most spoken native language in Europe, with more than a hundred million native speakers.
Check Google for clarity sake, Oga.

While I agree with you , English still remains the world's business language. No cap

This is how some people think their brain is firing on full cylinders then fail big in small WAEC. In continental Europe, no one natively speaks English outside of UK, Ireland, Gibraltar, Isle of Man and maybe only a small minority in Malta. That's around 70 to 75 million.

Russian is natively spoken in Russia, East of Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia, Estonia, Moldova. That's more than 130 million in Europe alone. No other language comes close.
What the blab are you are talking about?


I spoke only English when I visited Norway and most of them heard me. Same with Finland. Even Poland though I didn't go there but a friend there spoke only English until he learned Polish.

Oga, it's true. Russian is Europe's most spoken native language with more than a hundred million speakers.
There's nothing about depression here.
Problem with most Nigerians is that they attack anything they don't know or understand, and this mental illness extends to even our celebrities.
Oga, consult Google for clarity sake.

Oga sir, It's true. Russian is Europe's most spoken native language with more than one hundred million speakers.
Knowledge deformities has finished most Nigerian graduates, and still dealing with them.
Even most Nigerians don't know that US is a Spanish speaking country, with more than 60 million speakers of Spanish who are not migrants from Latin America.
Oga, consult Google and stop blindly arguing.

Madam learn n be enlightened. Going by population Russian should be the most spoken. It is common sense and nothing abstract about it. Just as Chinese is the world's most spoken language on earth going by their population. It is simple to understand abeg

English is the world's most spoken language followed by mandarin. Mandarin is the most spoken language in china but not the only language.
English by virtue of second language and mandarin as the highest by natives.
