Here is a mid-week quiz that is truly surprising. As the first
(mother-tongue) of people in the world, what language are spoken by the most
people?

I am too kind, I know, but I will give you the estimated NUMBER of people
who speak that language AND the first LETTER of the language. Should make
it a morceau de gâteau for most everyone. Again we ask NO Google, just brain
power.

1. C___________ (1,250,000,000)

2. S___________ (340,000,000)

3. E___________ (335,000,000)

(anyone who misses these top three have no hope for the rest)

4. A___________ (225,000,000)

5. H___________ (185,000,000)

6. B___________ (183,000,000)

7. P___________ (180,000,000)

8. R___________ (150,000,000)

9. J___________ (125,000,000)

10. G__________ (90,000,000)
