What is the major language spoken on each continent?

It's tricky to say definitively what the "major" language is on each continent, as there are many languages spoken and often several with a large number of speakers. However, here's a breakdown of some of the most prominent languages on each continent:

Africa:

* No single major language. Africa has a very diverse linguistic landscape, with over 2,000 languages spoken. Some of the most widely spoken include:

* Arabic (North Africa)

* Swahili (East Africa)

* Hausa (West Africa)

* Yoruba (West Africa)

* Zulu (Southern Africa)

Asia:

* Hindi (second most spoken language in the world)

* English (widely spoken in many countries due to historical influence)
