Say ¿Qué?: Top Ten Spoken Languages in the State of New York
Say ¿Qué? Multi-Language Design Series
How do you say [<♡>] in your language? To become a true polyglot, one must be proficient in four or more languages! Our Say ¿Qué? designs feature eleven languages! Below are translations for hello and love for the #TopTenSpokenNY.
We strive to build solidarity through the art of translation.
Thank you [Gracias, Xièxiè (谢谢), Spasibo (Спасибо), Dank ir (דאנק איר), Mèsi, Dhan'yabāda (ধন্যবাদ), Grazie, Merci, Shkran lak (شكرًا لك), E dupe] for reading!
*Data was downloaded from the U.S. Census Bureau and the American Community Survey and confirmed by comparing to Data USA (New York State (2022)). For each language, we selected the flag of the country of the largest diaspora residing in the state. We determined this by analyzing the birthplace data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau. For example, for the #TopTenSpokenNY design, for Spanish, we used the beautiful flag of the Dominican Republic. If you have suggestions to help us improve our translations, please let us know via connect@villagevalues.org or our form. Thank you!
