In this Spanish Medium Review quiz we will be taking a look at the Spanish names for some of the countries of the world. Do you know how many different languages are spoken in the world? The answer is that no one knows for certain just how many languages are spoken but as of 2009, in the Ethnologue (published by SIL International), a total of 6,909 languages were recorded. Those are only the ones that are known of but new languages are born almost every year. Thank goodness you don’t have to learn ALL of them!
There is no one country that speaks absolutely one language exclusively, although each country does have a most spoken language associated with it. For this quiz, you are going to be focusing on a number of the countries of the world and there are not 6,909 of them!
