How many languages are there in the world?
7,139 languages are spoken today.
That number is constantly in flux,because we're learning more about the world's languages every
day.And beyond that,the languages themselves are in flux.They're living and dynamic,spoken by
communities whose lives are shaped by our rapidly changing world.This is a fragile time:Roughly
40%of languages are now endangered,often with less than 1,000 speakers remaining.
Meanwhile,just 23 languages account for more than half the world's population.
