Best Answer

English is the most spoken language on the planet, by total number of speakers.

English is official in 54 countries, as well as many organizations such as the European Union and United Nations, and 27 non-sovereign entities . English is also the de facto language of four countries: Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom, and United States.

However, going into the US, English might soon be made an official language. There have been talks since the beginning of the US to make English an official language, but it is coming closer to being a truth. Today, a majority of 29 states in the US hold English as an official language and the number will grow.
