	We join our colleagues at @SILintl in celebrating the world's 7,097 languages – and the people who speak them. Your language matters! What is your first language and where is it from? youtu.be/lp-1ruEJnyg

	Sumasagot kay @marcelplabo It's worth noting that lexical similarity is not the same as mutual intelligibility. LS is a comparison of word lists – how similar words in two languages are. MI is about whether two speakers of different languages can understand each other.

	Sumasagot kay @chrjourdain @wef at 3 iba pa For French, there is certainly is – other languages less so. Most French speakers in Africa, for example, do not us it as a first language.

	Sumasagot kay @chrjourdain @wef at 3 iba pa @OIFfrancophonie used ‘all speaker’ data. @StatistaCharts used our first-language speaker data rather than our ‘all speaker’ data. As such, there is a wide difference between the two.

	English is the largest language in the world, if you count both native and non-native speakers. If you count only native speakers, Mandarin Chinese is the largest. ethnologue.com/guides/most-sp… pic.twitter.com/45Pm0KGwPA

	Sumasagot kay @grotophorst We don’t publish a sample stanza, as most basic stanzas work – unfortunately one of the newer EZProxy updates make some (non-Ethnologue) stanzas change global settings, which may thus impact access to our product.

	Sumasagot kay @b0urnvita @HoeflerCo @bianca_berning As noted before, some of the scripts for these languages are no longer in use, but we count them regardless.

	Sumasagot kay @b0urnvita @HoeflerCo @bianca_berning We don't currently publish it on our site, but might develop a "guide" soon (something we've done for other topics). 11 languages with 5 scripts: - Mandarin - Hmong Daw - Ho - Kashmiri - Sanskrit - Santhali - Hmong Njua - Halh Mongolian - Western Punjabi - Saraiki - Turkish

	Sumasagot kay @fxdurandy @IndiaCensus2011 We didn’t produce that infographic. It doesn’t depict our definition of macrolanguages correctly, which will over-emphasize “Chinese”, compared to other languages.

	Sumasagot kay @KruegerDude @LizAnnSonders at 3 iba pa @StatistaCharts simplified our concepts quite a bit for this chart. We have "macrolanguages" that group related languages together. Chinese, as you noted, is not a "real" language, but it includes the languages you mentioned and more. This is to better compare with Arabic, etc.

	Sumasagot kay @verge @Shannon_Liao @Shannon_Liao Thanks for the shout out! Just fyi, that link (and # of languages) is from 2009. Our latest language count (7,097) is here: ethnologue.com/guides/how-man… We're also happy to answer other language/culture questions.

	Sumasagot kay @Dean_Nimbly @RoyceWilsonAU at 2 iba pa Yes – who we are as people is inseparable from the languages we speak. In many European cultures a “good day” is a sunny day, while in many African cultures a “good day” is a rainy day. Different cultural values provide the context for interpreting the term for “good”.
