Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia) has slipped out of the table completely - along with Serbo-Croat and Yoruba. Three more Indian dialects to remember instead.

I've never heard Cantonese called Yue, and I know people who speak Cantonese :P Think I'll take Jetpunk's word for it though...

How is it possible that Indonesian is not there? There are more than 20 million in Jakarta alone.

Indonesian is a dialect of Malay.

Also, most people in Indonesia do not speak Indonesian as their first language, but rather Javanese, Sundanese, or one of the several other related languages of the various islands. Indonesian is more like a lingua franca.

@lukutiss1324 Hindu is a religion, and Hindi is the language. they are not the same thing at all.

Though it is the official language of Ethiopia, according to the figures on wikipedia there are not many native speakers. Fewer than 20 million.

Where does Wikipedia get those numbers? 68 million native French speakers seems quite low. There are over 60M people in France alone (all of whom speak French). By the time you add Quebec, half of Belgium, parts of Switzerland, the elite of Haiti, a few Americans (Maine / Louisiana), plus a whole bunch of people in former African colonies who learn French from birth, there must be far more speakers than that.
I am speaking of native speakers, of course, not the people who learn French in school as a foreign language.
