What is your official language?

I suppose the official language of England is English, although sometimes you wonder because it is such a multicultural country that many languages are spoken here. My mother tongue is English, although I am able to speak Spanish and French because I've lived in both spanish and french speaking countries.

Hello onedaysoon! In our country, we have many dialects. Every regions have different languages. But our official language is filipino. That is how we communicate everytime we go to local places. I speak English..hehehe..Well, as you can see it..and I am using english online too..

Wow, it means I have made the wrong assumption about the official language of the USA. It shows that we should not believe that our assumptions are always correct, even if we have reasons to do so. The national language of my country is Malay, referred to as Bahasa Melayu (Malay Language). The minority groups refused to accept the word 'Malay' in it, and called it Bahasa Malaysia. English is the second official language. Again, there people demanding English to be discarded. I speak and write fairy well in both languages. Many assume Mandarin and Tamil as the third and fourth official languages. They are not even though they are used in TV programs and commercials, and there are publications in these languages. There are efforts to increase proficiency in other languages even though there are no plans to make them official languages. They are Arabic, German, and French. I use mainly English while online. all the best, rosdimy

We in the Philippines speak Filipino (most people call it Tagalog) but we are also fluent in English because in school, the subjects like Math, Science are in English and we also have Reading and Language subjects in Elementary.

Interesting question, in fact, my english is so bad because I´m from south america, being more specific I´m from Chile and here the official language is Spanish, but everyone MUST know english because americans and europeans are the most frequent visitors that we have, not so sure why.

In India where i live the official language is Hindi but english is used and spoken for all official and other dealings besides it. India has many languages and dialects as there is a wide variety of people living across the length and breadth of the country from North to South and East to West. I speak Hindi, English, Marathi, Gujarati and also my own mother tongue which is Konkani. It is a dialect and has no script so we write it in Marathi which is the official language of Maharashtra, a state i the Western part of the country having its capital in Mumbai or Bombay as it was known earlier. In South India in the state of Karnataka Konkani is written in the native regional language of Kannada.

I'm from the Dominican Republic (a shared island next tp Puerto Rico) and our official language is Dominican... well, not really: it's spanish but we have so many new words (that only we know) that I think is a whole new language! hahaha Happy MyLotting and have a nice day! Xp

Here in the Philippines we have two official languages: Filipino and English. But in all our official transactions, medium in school and official documents, we always used English, we never used Filipino. Thats' why maybe we are very good in English, i a job interview, we are required to speak English not Filipino. We believed that English is a language of competition so we used it in our daily school routine.

Our country is composed of many dialects, these were recognized to different parts of our country in result, misunderstanding of forefathers were at hand because of language barrier. However, Filipinos have been agreed to use one official dialect in order to maximize the capacity of communication between bridges, and this is Filipino Language.We don't call it Official but National Language.

In Indonesia, we do have an official language. It is Indonesian language which is derived from Malay language. It is quite similar but not exactly the same to Malay though. We need to have an official language because here we have so many tribes, each speak with their own language. To facilitate inter-cultural communication we need to have one official language. I myself also speak Javanese. It is my mother tounge and commonly spoken language in my area Java Island (central and east Java).
