The 20 most commonly spoken languages in the world

QuizI’ve just done this quiz on Sporcle.com, and gotten a fairly sad 12/20.  Granted, I didn’t know that it included dialects (so now you know), although I don’t think that would have helped me much.

A couple of these languages I hadn’t even heard of prior to doing this quiz, so perhaps that should be my impetus to get out and learn a bit more about the world.  I was pretty glad to see that Language Trainers covers most of the widely-known ones, though!

How did you do?
