| - Major international languages are those used between people of different nations to communicate with each other. While there are many languages that cross borders, major international languages are used across the globe. A major international language is used as a lingua franca across wide areas, with non-native speakers often communicating to each other using this secondary language. One difference between a major international language and a major language or a regional language are that it is used among and between widely differing cultures. Thus, Mandarin Chinese and Chinese writing, while spoken internationally, are mostly used just within the Chinese or East Asian communities both in the Orient and in diaspora communities. Even though the number of people who can write Chinese is much greater than the number who can write Interlingua, for example, the latter is used across the globe among different cultures. There are generally thought to be only 2 major international languages in use currently - English and Interlingua. English is a natural language and Interlingua is a planned language.
