      You would think that countries with high immigrant populations would have a lot of three language speakers. Usually these people know their own native language, the language of the country that they are moving to, and probably English.

      For Spain are they counting regional languages? Because for my own experience in Valencia almost every young person speaks Spanish, Valencian and English at minimum and suppouse it’s true for other parts of Spain like Catalonia and Galicia.

      Powerful countries, or if they feel powerful, never feel any need to learn foreign languages. The map doesn’t reflect just that so there has to be some other explanation

      Norwegians have a master degree in scandinavian languages.. For them Danish and swedish is just another dialect

      What are the 3 languages spoken by Norwegians? Norwegian, English and Swedish?
      And the Finns? Finnish, Swedish and English?

      It’s hilarious that the French are worse than the Brits even though English is our first language

      This basically is a map of

      1. countries whose primary language has another very closely related one that it is easy to pick up and be able to speak a 2nd language (Nordics, Netherlands, former Yugoslavia)

      2. countries that are legitimately multilingual where learning a second language is quite useful career wise, day to day, and where governments will prioritize knowing multiple to some degree (Belgium, Switzerland)

      3. English, in smaller nations that watch a lot of American media where dubbing would be cost prohibitive especially (Nordics, again, Netherlands, again, Baltics)

      Some cousins of mine (we’re from Ireland) lived in Luxembourg, working for the EU. On a visit the wife said that she once had a long conversation with another woman, and half way though they realised that one of them had been speaking French and the other German, but they didn’t notice for ages.

      I’m very surprise how low is the percentage in portugal, a lot of people know how to speak portuguese, English and Spanish. 😅

      Why does estonia have 2x more than latvia and lithuania? I would have guessed them to be around the same. More older people speaking english? (along with russian)

      This is Native language, English and whatever most of their immigrants speak.

      Are the Norse counting Bokmal and Nynorsk as two different languages? Because that’s cheating. Although I suppose foul play is to be expected from the people who pillaged Lindisfarne.

      Funny for Croatia, which has the second highest English proficiency in Europe. I guess people here only speak English. Despite us all learning at least 2-3 foreign languages growing up, because of the way our education system is structured.

      4% of 3 languages? That’s impressive. I don’t even speak 4% of one language.

      English people can barely speak english in the first place, so congrats on the 5%. 🥳

      I called major bullshit on Portugal. I think a lot of Portuguese claim to speak Spanish. But only have a very rough understanding of it. Most Portuguese speak better English than they speak Spanish.

      Slovakia – the first foreign language will be Czech and the second Hungarian
