> 200 million speak english as a secondary language

Where did you get that number? The sources I've seen are 1+ billion

I'm not saying everyone should speak english. But it seems if things carry on the way they are, everyone will speak english, even if it isn't the best "choice"



view as:

From Wikipedia. Turns out that Spanish wikipedia and English wikipedia shows quite different numbers. So now I'm confused. In this website http://www.ethnologue.com/language/eng they say that total english users are 942,533,930.
