No

I speak Welsh, Cornish, and Breton, and am dutifully involved in the Open Celtic Dictionary project.

Komz a rit brezhoneg ? Penaos az poa deskiñ?

depends what you consider a language I have some speakers in my family
but no

No.
I had the choice to learn the fake language that is basque but didn't because it's gay and dumb and basques are insufferable.

Yes

Eja

Which one? Finnish doesn't count.

I speak Javanese, the language spoken by the largest ethnic group in Indonesia.

Yes, I speak russian.

If cucktalan counts then yes

I "know" latin and ancient greek

Scots

>No Elfdalian
Map discarded.

how is 95–100 million speaker a rare language??

None of those are rare

I’m actually the editor for the scots wiki

Dialects aren't languages.

yeah sorry, everyone speaks attic greek, my bad.

Elfdalian is extremely rare though
No. Also normal Scanian obviously isn't a language. Perhaps archaic Scanian could have that status but it isn't spoken in all the places shown on the map, only in Skåne and some adjacent areas.

ja

Elfdalian being a "dialect" is just a cope from our government who would rather give support to Romani, Yiddish and Arabic speakers than give linguistic rights to the natives. If you know Swedish you can't speak to someone who's talking in Elfdalian. Even if you get it written down on paper it makes zero sense because everything is different. If anything it looks like Icelandic.

why yes i am fluent in meänkieli and kven

Can Finns also understand Karelian?
Or is it too different, like Estonian?

It has no official backing and it's slowly disappearing due to our agressive monolingual education and governance.

What's the official language used by the Indonesian government?

Indonesian, which is Malay like in Malaysia but rebranded as Indonesian to give a sense of national unity.
It's as if the Indian government force Hindi as the sole official language of the country and call it "Indian" language (although Hindi by itself already sorta means Indian).

But isn't Malay less spoken than Javanese? Why did they choose it as the official language?

It was more popular as inter-island trade language and had wider range of speakers even as far as Ambon and tip of Papua.
When the Dutch opened schools for the natives they also shilled Malay. The revolutionary leaders continued this trend.

i've found both "karelian" that i understand and that i don't, so im not quite sure.
