What are the official English languages?

There is no such thing as an "official English language." While English is widely spoken around the world, there is no single governing body that dictates what constitutes "official English."

However, there are official languages of countries and regions where English is spoken. For example:

* The United Kingdom has no official language at the national level, but English is the de facto language.

* The United States has no official language at the federal level, but English is the dominant language.

* Canada has two official languages: English and French.

* Australia has no official language at the federal level, but English is the dominant language.

* India has 22 official languages, including English.

It's important to remember that "official language" doesn't necessarily mean it's the only language spoken in a country or region.
