  Mandarin, China’s official tongue, is also the top language worldwide for business other than English。

  Mandarin, spoken by 845 million people, scored highest in a ranking of languages, excluding English, based on business usefulness. The ranking scored languages according to the number of speakers, number of countries where the language is official, along with those nations’ populations, financial power, educational and literacy rates, and related measures。

  French, spoken by 68 million people worldwide and the official language of 27 countries, was ranked second。

  Mandarin is unlikely to supplant English soon as the primary language of business, said Leigh Hafrey, a senior lecturer in communications and ethics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Sloan School of Management。

  “In much the same way that the dollar remains the preferred currency, English will remain the preferred language for the foreseeable future,” Hafrey said in a telephone interview。

  Mandarin speakers can gain an advantage in doing business in China, he said。
