Really interesting indeed! It made me think of an article I read the other day that stated that one language dies every 14 days:
One Language Disappears Every 14 Days, New York City Plays an Unforeseen Role | Manhattan, New York, NY | News
Wow, this is really very interesting, because it´s very graphic and you can have a very good picture on how languages are distributed, and the subgroups within each language. Thank you Alfredo for sharing this.
It´s surprsing to see how Japanese, only showing Japan as its main region, and being so small greographically speaking, can represent a considerable part of the total...mmm

me encanto la infografia!!
Hola Dani
sí, me pareció interesante y además, al ser tan gráfico me resulta más fácil de ver las proporciones a nivel general :)
Is there any criterion for how much knowledge is enough to be counted as language speaker in this Infographic ?
Hi Anabella
I took a look again, and the first paragraph at the top says the map provides the numbers of native speakers for each language, in millions...Is that what what you are asking? :o
I am going to go with English as it the universal ship and plane commuction langue and seems to be the one picked as a commen ground langued by most countries at least for trade etc
