Which country has the most official languages in the world? The answer depends on how you count, and the #1 spot has no official language at all.
In this video we count every language that a country's law recognises at national level, whether it's called "official", "national" or "scheduled", and ask the same question each time: is it really used, or does it only exist on paper?
💬 How many languages are spoken in YOUR country? Tell me in the comments!
