Where did that info come from? And more importantly, what does it
count? Is that people's first language, or all languages known, or
what? A bit of Googling brought me to a Wikipedia page [1] which
quotes a similar figure of thirteen languages; that's talking about
native speakers, and is talking about native speakers. But that may
not be the most useful definition here.

An alternative useful definition is "accessibility": if you
communicate a message in Mandarin and English, a large proportion of
humans will be capable of understanding that message. Does it take the
above thirteen to exceed 50% of the world by that definition? Or
wording it another way, is there no set of twelve or less languages
which will reach 50% of the world? There's another Wikipedia page [2]
that tries to estimate total number of speakers, but it's nearly
impossible to get any sort of accurate figure; it puts Mandarin at
somewhere over a billion people, and English as another billion or so;
that's coming up toward 50% right there (say, 1.5b each is 3b, out of
a world population of 7b). Ball-park figures, those two plus Spanish
(another half billion or so) would pretty much hit your half mark.

I've no idea what point I'm trying to make here. Just poking around
with numbers. :)

Steven, you have trolled us over to the left edge of outer left field 
all the way back at the fence, dude, seriously--- and then you dropped 
the ball. Geeeze... error.

My point at the beginning was that we need a universal unicode input 
device. Its time to think past US_104 and en_US.  Come in out of left field.

As long as I'm passing along my dreams to everyone, we also need a 
universal translator on the uptake. In other words, everyone inputs from 
a universal encoder, and every browser has the option of on-demand 
translation (or not). Its a little like google translate, but on-demand, 
and its standard, and it works everywhere with every language.

Everyone keys input in their own heart language (first, primary 
language) and then the internet browser allows for display of first 
language (if the coding is the same) and translates if the coding is 
different (all configurable of course). Yes, the apps are in the cloud.

What say you?  We all type in our own language, and everyone else gets 
to read it in their own language. Its kinda like the day of Pentecost 
(except that its print instead of audio).

And Pentecost required direct intervention of the all-powerful God of
the universe. Any less, and you'll run into translation difficulties.
It certainly cannot be automated; even done manually by people expert
in both the source and target languages, translation is imperfect.

Truth.   Well, like I said, its a dream.  And, we are finally at that 
point in time &space (fast computers, elegant programming languages, 
network, cloud apps, desire) where I think we could tackle universal 
translation.

On the other hand, would it be easier to simply move everyone to a 
neutral lingua franca?  For instance, lets say, biblical Greek.  In 
other words, the entire world learns a new (dead) language. Then, we all 
move forward speaking ONE language and we forget the translation thing 
altogether?

The reason that won't work is that everyone needs their heart language 
(as what it means to be human, and as what it means to be 'them'). How 
we speak is how we think, and feel. Its a conundrum for sure.

Is it safe to assume that's a reference from a sport that essentially

The following link shows plenty of language stats (most of them differ 
from yours markedly; the estimates are just guesses really).

The main point of the link is the status on English as an official 
language.  28 out of 50 states have legislated English as the official 
language; meaning, that you either speak and write English, or you're 
going to have a really tough time participating in culture, business, 
government, and recreation.

Considering how much is done to ensure that illiterate people can
still comprehend critical information (important signage, warnings,
traffic directions, etc, etc, etc), I think we can assume that someone
who speaks some language other than English will still manage to do a
lot of things. Plus, plenty of official documents are available in
many languages; the legislated "official language" just means that the
English version is the only one that is guaranteed to be there. Go to
any one of the states you've mentioned, where English is the sole
official language, and pick up any government form - something fairly
important, like applying for a passport or something. How many
languages is it available in? They might all be on the same form, or
maybe you have to explicitly request it in Spanish, but I expect it'll
be translated into several non-official languages for the convenience
of those whose English isn't as good as their (switch to GLaDOS voice)
Insert Subject Native Language Here (switch voice back).

But none of this has anything to do with the original point, namely
that there are people who communicate in other languages. Even if you
have to learn English for the sake of official documents, you won't
necessarily want to chat with your friends in English. If you pick up
the phone and talk to someone, you can use whatever language you want;
if you switch to email, chances are you still can. And that's
something that's been true since the dawn of email, which predates
Unicode by a slight margin... of a decade or so.

What does "official language" mean?

Finland has two official languages: Finnish and Swedish. It means you
are guaranteed to get state services in both languages. At municipal
level, you might get guarantees in one or both of the languages
depending on census data.

In California, OTOH, it's the other way around: English being official
means you are guaranteed *not* to get services in languages other than
English. If a government social worker speaks Spanish and the customer
only knows Spanish, the social worker is not legally allowed to use
Spanish to conduct their business. In Finland, no government worker is
disallowed from using any language they deem useful in their work.

Can I politely suggest that we just end this discussion?  The thread has 
been properly marked as OFF TOPIC, and it is now squarely in areas that 
are 1) politically contentious, 2) wildly subjective, 3) none of our 
areas of expertise.  No good can come from continuing.

Ehh, sorry, bad example then. (I'm not a Merkin, so I don't know what
you suffer under.) Pick something that is state-controlled instead.

That few?  I'm surprised.  Presumably the other states don't have any  
contention for the status of "official language"?

I'm also surprised that you aren't surprised that over half the states  
feel the need to specify an official language.  One might wonder why...

The modern 'English primary' movement, with its first state success in 
1981, was a reaction to the 'Spanish co-equal' movement of the 1970s. 
Without state-by-state data on the push for legislation, I see no clear 
pattern in the list of which states have such a law.

I believe the point is your generalized use of "American".  After all, Mexicans are Americans 
too, as well as Canadians, Peruvians and ...

Unfortunately, there is no good word for "USA-ian".  "United States Citizen" is too long and 
awkward and "United Statesian" is ridiculous.  The common usage of "American" for this is at 
best ambiguous, and definitely inaccurate (as well as chauvinistic, and rather insulting to 
other North and South Americans outside the US).

Among fans of the British writer Terry Pratchett, the usual term is 
Merkins. Including among Merkin fans.
