mirrorbird (11:30:52)
german didn't spread very much outside of europe

mirrorbird (11:30:45)
yet germany never really "colonised", if you look at south america, they speak english, spanish, portuguese -- in africa it's often french

mirrorbird (11:30:22)
ah yeah if it's by number of speakers, not by number of countries, that will help you

Rapture (11:30:16)
it's many. it's HUGE. it's brilliant.

Rapture (11:30:09)
1/4th of all europeans speak german. ah ok. it's much!

mirrorbird (11:30:08)
possible... i would think French might be more... hmmmm... Switzerland and Belgium speak both

Rapture (11:29:49)

Rapture (11:29:44)
