eugene:Somebody tell me how they know this number or any large quantity of anything, especially before computers.
Charlie:The number is somewhere between 6,000 and 7,000. Probably the best known statistics on this is SIL's Ethnologue which counts 6,909 languages. See <http://www.ethnologue.com/ethno_docs/distribution.asp?by=size>.
Matt:dude their are so many dialects i dont doubt this, like american english and english english, we have so many differences that in some contexts we would be confused
rachel:lol@ "anom". . . anon?
