Approximately 82% of people in the United States only spoke English, 11% only spoke Spanish, and 7% only spoke other languages, such as Indo-European, Asian, and Pacific Island languages.Although there is no official federal language of the United States, American English, which is the most widely spoken language, serves as the country's de facto official language. Additionally, the vast majority of Americans (about 78.5%) speak it as their only language at home. According to the American Community Survey (ACS) of the U.S. Census Bureau, many other languages are also spoken at home, especially Spanish (13.2% of the population). These include native languages and languages that immigrants from Europe, Africa, and Asia brought to the country. The majority of people who speak these languages, however, are multilingual and also understand English. Despite the fact that 21.5% of Americans claim to speak a language other than English at home, just 8.2% really do so.To know more about United States different languages visit:https://brainly.com/question/678655#SPJ9
