French is the official language of 25 countries, making in the most popular ‘lingua franca’ after English, with French translations from France, Canadian French, and Francophone Africa particularly common. According to current population growth, the IOF (l’Organisation internationale de la Francophonie) believes that there may be upwards of 700 million French speakers globally by 2050.
London is the Sixth Biggest French City
Paris is the biggest French speaking city in the world, but none of the next three are in France, with Kinshasa (DRC), Abidjan (Cote d’Ivoire), and Montreal (Canada) taking up second, third and fourth spots respectively. Recently it has also been published that London is in fact the sixth biggest French speaking city in the world, with a reported 400,000 French citizens. This further illustrates the global nature of the language, and why professional French translation services are a vital business tool.

Why Translate My Business Into French?
Almost half of all French native speakers live in Africa, with a total of 96.2 million on the continent, with the majority of others in France and French Canada. As economies grow and communications technologies spread across the African continent, so too does the importance of the French language. With a global business market fuelled by internet communication, the 2,988.4% increase in internet users between 2001 and 2011 illustrates the increased connectivity on the continent.
