Shared official language
Do A and B have an official language in common?
- How to read a cell
- A tick with a language means both countries have that language as an official language; a dash means they have none in common. Hover to see each country's official languages. “No data” means the source has no figure for that pair — the note in the cell says why; “not applicable” means the question does not arise for that pair.
- Reliability
- medium — Wikidata P37 statements (official language by law). A Wikidata statement counts unless it is deprecated, ended, or limited to part of the state. Variants of one language are folded together (Putonghua, Standard Chinese and Cantonese → Chinese; Modern Standard Arabic → Arabic; Bokmål and Nynorsk → Norwegian). National or recognised languages that are not the official language are left out (Taiwan, Senegal, Malawi, Afghanistan's regional languages). Sign languages are left out. Corrections are listed with their source; additions show '(CountryPair edit)'

The table
Rows are country A, columns country B; the two-letter codes are the usual country codes (AM = Armenia, DE = Germany…). Hover a cell to see the full value and its note. A dash means “no” or “nothing recorded”; a striped cell means either “no data” (the source has no figure for this pair — the note says why) or “not applicable” (the question makes no sense for this pair, for example a sea route for two landlocked countries). “All regions” on both sides shows the whole table.
