More people speak Mandarin but not by a 3:1 ratio. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/pakistan/8776352/Factbox-Mandarin-vs-English.html

I am pleased that my joking dig at Lestat resulted in controversy.  :thumbup:

Yes Edwin Starr was in a glass half empty state of mind when he wrote it but it is a great old song.

Correction, Norman Whitfield and Barry Strong wrote it. Edwin Starr performed the most successful version of it.

Three times as many people speak Mandarin.

Bzzzztt!! WRONG ANSWER!

There's 3 times as many NATIVE speakers as English, but non-native English speakers outnumber native speakers by over 3-1.

English is most likely the most common language on earth. It's certainly spoken in more places.

It's not the wrong answer.

Yes it is the wrong answer because the question at hand was a set of instructions for a product being sold on a worldwide market. Most Mandarin speakers are confined to China whereas people speak English all over the globe.

See PPK's answer.

Oh, and bloody hell you are dense. I'd feel sorry for you but it wouldn't make a difference. You're just as dense regardless.

Quote from: Lestat
The vast majority of the world's population doesn't speak fluent chinese.

Nobody speaks "fluent chinese" but Mandarin is widespread.

My point exactly.

Would make sense if the product was intended for a chinese consumer market.

But england? no.

Plotting the downfall of the Great Satan, and thinking about what kind of squeaky toy my yorkshire terrier, Little Mahmoud, would like.
This looks like a good one.  :thumbup:


That's almost even more wrong than the toy I bought my niece the other day. I should have taken a picture of it, before wrapping it.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

It's amusing in the same sense that I laugh at retards.

So why don't you put your money where your mouth is and call out Odeon? Oh wait, I know, because you're a cowardly failtroll with the intellect of an amoeba. Come on shit for brains, grow some balls.
