What's your nation's largest non-native minority language? (living, Korean)

[Gentoo]

In the USA:

Spanish
Tagalog
Chinese (mostly Cantonese)
Vietnamese
Korean
Arabic
French
German


Past Vietnamese, I really don't know the order they would be and I may not have them in the right order past Spanish so bare with me. There are numerous others but these are the main ones.

In Austria it's:

Serbo-Croatian
Turkish
German

Yes, German. Seems like Germans were the biggest immigrant group until recently.

I'm confused. Austrians speak German as a native language right?

Ha, yeah. Ariete asked which language is the most common among non-native immigrants. Germans are non-native, but happen to speak the same language.

It's quite funny actually how segregated they are at university. They always run around in groups and seem to be a bit lost

Very predominantly Latin America. Though not predominantly Mexican. There are some, but they don't dominate the Spanish speakers here.

410,000. Compared to 430,000 for Punjabi.

Hindi is only at 90,000. That surprises me too. Perhaps many Hindus in Canada aren't Hindi native speakers? Maybe some of them identify English as their language?

Barely any mexicans there?

In Taiwan it's Indonesian, Vietnamese, Tagalog, and Thai. In that order.

Most popular foreign languages learned are English and Japanese, these two are heads and shoulders above all other languages.

Maybe they speak Punjabi? Only 41% of all Indians speak Hindi as their first language.

edit: looked it up for Finland. The largest Indian linguistic minority here is Bengali, not Hindi.
