NekoMimi has a spectacular aura about
English...

Even in Non-English Speaking Countries they use English for business transactions...

In South America, parts of Asia, parts of Africa...

They count the money in english...
They count the merchendise in english...

Second to that, I belive it is spanish...

Then Arabic...

Then Hebrew...

And some Asian Languages...

But I think it is hard to judge the Asian Languages because there are just SO MANY PEOPLE in Asia...

While spanish and english is spoken across the globe.
