WRONG ANSWER!There's 3 times as many NATIVE speakers as English, but non-native English speakers outnumber native speakers by over 3-1. English is most likely the most common language on earth. It's certainly spoken in more places.It's not the wrong answer.

Most Mandarin speakers are confined to China whereas people speak English all over the globe.
