Do you speak English?

click here to read about the map

I came across this photo today and was pretty surprised by how many people in Europe don't speak English. I think when we are raised in the United States you assume that all other developed countries teach English, but of course that's just us being ethnocentric.

Email your responses to the Hot Tamale Activities below to bordner@cityhigh.org or akhand@cityhigh.org


  • create a chart with each country and percentage of population that speaks English
  • focus on one color of country (blue, grey, brown, etc.) and identify what the official language of each country is
  • What does this map teach you about being a knowledgeable traveler?
