   Anyway Chinese still has 3x the amount of speakers.

   
   also that statement wouldn't work if you put the word 'native' in between the words 'of' and 'speakers'.

   Nah. Probably for a long time.
   
   Even if we look at total speakers, not just native, English has about 500 million and Chinese has 1.2 billion. Even Spanish has 650 million total.
   
   English is a weak language that will be extinguished with the fall of America. Much like Latin.

   Probably need a few vats, maybe a couple dozen gallons of pickle juice, and no doubt some kind of meat hook with wheels, ropes and pulleys.

   but 10 million chinese speak english as a second language. pretty much anybody in business in china will speak at least enough english to hold a basic conversation and its reported that in the major cities in china its not hard to find people that speak english.
   
   also another factor to consider is china doesn't have just one language of 'chinese'. some speak mandarin and some cantonese, so often you will have chinese people who speak different chinese but both speak english as a second language and so will converse in english rather than use a translator.. as the world gets smaller english will be the natural choice for people to speak as they go forward.

   plus 40% of europeans already speak it fluently.
   
   its a pretty safe bet that hardly any spanish speakers speak chinese as a second language and hardly any chinese speak spanish as a second language. englishes popularity as a second language around the world is what will make it the obvious choice as the global language in the future. its already considered the global language of business.

   Of course we've got an excuse. The rest of the world speaks English. Indeed, as the map below shows, it is spoken by more than half the population in 45 countries beyond the UK, including The Philippines, Denmark, Germany, The Netherlands, Singapore, Austria, Finland, Malaysia, Belgium and Greece.
   
   45 countries where at least half of the population speak English
   
   Barbados
   Ireland
   Marshall Islands
   New Zealand
   Jamaica
   Australia
   Nauru
   United States
   Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
   Dominica
   Philippines
   Palau
   Denmark
   Grenada
   Guyana
   Netherlands
   Sweden
   Norway
   Malta
   Trinidad and Tobago
   The Bahamas
   Suriname
   Canada
   Israel
   Vanuatu
   Sierra Leone
   Liberia
   Belize
   Singapore
   Antigua and Barbuda
   Saint Kitts and Nevis
   Austria
   Cyprus
   Germany
   Finland
   Ghana
   Malaysia
   Switzerland
   Belgium
   Slovenia
   Micronesia
   Luxembourg
   Nigeria
   Greece
   Estonia
   
   According to David Crystal's book English as a Global Language, more than a third of residents in Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Sri Lanka, Croatia, Nepal, Latvia and Italy speak it, so you should also get by in those countries without dusting off your phrasebook

   No. English will not be the natural choice. Like I said, Mandarin is the most spoken. People learn English because of America. When America falls, people will stop learning it. Chinese will still remain the most populous people.
