As people living in the United States of America, we usually tend to think that the English language rules the WORLD! well... IT DOES! Have you ever traveled anywhere where they couldn't speak a word of English, very unlikely for that to happen!
So I was reading this article today, and i thought it is really interesting to know such a fact about Twitter, which is one of the most leading social platform in the world right now!
the English language is the top language used on Twitter, which comes in a surprise considering that English is not the mother tongue language of the company's founders.
Over one-third (34%) of all tweets were in English in September, with 16% Japanese is the second most popular language on the micro-blogging network, while Spanish clocks in at third place with 12% !
If you actually think about it, more than 50% of the online world can communicate with each other with only 3 languages!! I wonder if we can do the same in real life?? #just_wondering
