How commonly spoken is your country’s second language? If I only spoke that language, would I be likely to make friends? (chachara.club)

USA: Spanish. I’m learning Spanish, and I think as a whole it’s like 18% of people in the USA but I feel like you’re likely to encounter some Spanish speakers and make friends even if not everyone speaks Spanish here.

Brazil: It looks like Spanish is also the second most spoken language with 4% or English with around 5%. I’m sure you’re more likely to find people on the Internet who speak it.

French: English, apparently a quarter of the population speak it??? Not sure how likely you are to find someone in the wild speaking it, but on the Internet, a lot of people.

The official second language in the Netherlands is Frisian. I guess you can make friends in the province Friesland with it, but not a lot of other places.

English, on the other hand, is spoken almost everywhere.
