Countries and Important
Languages Spoken in Them
Maybe you know where the language comes from but you don’t know what the language actually is. Or maybe the
name of the language you are looking for is not in our list. The list on our Languages page does not list every language
we can support. And many languages have several names.
Use this document to search by country or by language.
And if we are using different names for the same language, you can probably still find your
language on this list here. Just do a word search like you would in a regular Word file.
KEY:
Bold languages in bold are official languages in that country or region
() parentheses Specifies which dialect or type of that language
/ slash Separates alternate names for the same language
