How multilingual is Hive?

in #hive4 years ago (edited)


Have you ever wondered which language is used the most on Hive?

English is not the only language used by Hive users, even if it is obviously the #1. Many posts are written in "foreign" languages and sometimes may even contain multiple languages.

Yesterday started the Hive MeetUP organized by the Hispanic community and during the introduction, I heard someone saying that Spanish is the most used language on the Hive blockchain (apart from English). But is this really true?

Without delay, I began to analyze the data of the blockchain, and here is the result of my research.
Let's look at how many posts have been published on Hive, excluding those in English:


Note: this chart includes only posts, not comments/replies.

There might be some unexpected languages in this chart. Please keep in mind that language detection is not always perfect and sometimes got tricked when there are not enough words in a post.

And the winner is... Spanish!

¡Felicitaciones a la comunidad de habla hispana! Congratulations to the Spanish speaking community!

Their "domination" is truly impressive. It is not yet the time to rename Hive to "Colmena" but we may have to think about it one day. ;)

But before we claim victory, let's see if it's the result of episodic or regular activity.

Interesting, isn't it? Since Hive's forkday a year ago, the Hispanic community has not only grown by leaps and bounds, but they've also managed to keep that activity going.

The challengers

Let's see what happens at the level of the challengers

Although the Korean community has had a promising start, their activity on Hive is clearly in decline. I won't venture here trying to explain why, but I think we all have a good idea. Follow my gaze...

The second most active and regular community is the German-speaking community. Herzlichen Glückwunsch an alle meine deutschsprachigen Freunde!

Next come the Chinese, Portuguese and Italian communities, each with a good regularity as well.

Conclusion

As you know, I am a big fan of foreign languages as I started to learn 8 of them. By doing this, I opened my mind and my ability to better meet people who do not speak my language. My relationship with them was transformed, for the better.

I am convinced that there is room for linguistic diversity on Hive. Follow the example of the Spanish community and write in your own language.

Let's make the Hive community truly multilingual.

Thanks for reading!

Congratulazioni a tutti gli utenti italiani per questo ottimo punteggio!

Y como el español gano como el idioma mas utilizado en Hive, te lo escribo en español.

Muchas gracias @arcange por tu trabajo como testigo, usuario, y compañero de la colmena, y esta frase tuya me encanto, me llego al corazón, que lindo de tu parte.

Todavía no es el momento de cambiar el nombre de Hive a "Colmena", pero tal vez tengamos que pensarlo algún día. ;)

Para mi Hive siempre será Hive o la colmena, en Ingles o Español es amor es el mismo, y Hive es Amor.

Te envió un super abrazo en español, ingles y también en alemán. 🤗😘 @arcange

Wuao que emoción, gracias por la información. Te envio un abrazo en el idioma que me gusta el AMOR. Leguaje universal que deberiamos hablar todos los seres humanos. Con amor te envio un abrazo y te doy las gracias por tu apoyo.

Muchas gracias @mafalda2018, realmente apreciado! ❤️

Thanks a lot. I really like this kind of research. I am proud of Spanish community.

GO ESPAÑOL GO

Proud you can be!

Gracias por esa mente inquieta que no se queda con las incertidumbres y va a las estadísticas. Es una grata sorpresa ver cómo el habla hispana gana espacios.

Tal vez no cambiemos el nombre a colmena pero si daremos nuestros partes para mejorar la colmena cada día.

Gracias por este post nos llena de orgullo ser parte de la mayoría.

Excellent!!!... Excelente!!! Saludos a todos los compañeros de habla hispana que cada día trabajan para hacer crecer esta comunidad, y de todos los otros idiomas también! Que sigamos creciendo unidos!

Wow it's really awesome!
Muchas gracias siempre por el apoyo

Estupendo siempre estamos en tendencia en twitter cada jueves, es estupendo que nuestra comunidad se mueve
@arcange
Great we are always trending on twitter every Thursday, it is great that our community moves
@arcange

La actividad general de la comunidad hispana es impresionante.

It is certainly the community that interacts the most, especially Venezuelans.

Be careful not to confuse the posts with the comments.
For me, the interaction is at the level of the comments exchanged with the posts.
It would therefore be interesting to do a similar analysis, but at the level of comments.

Do I understand correctly that the Ukrainian language is in 8th place? If so, I am happy that the Ukrainian community entered the top 10.
Thank you Hive for this opportunity!
And thanks to the Ukrainian communities that help in promoting Ukrainian content:

P.S.
Hive in Ukrainian will be: "Вулик" or "Vulyk" ))

Вітаємо українську громаду! 🎉

I find this information quite interesting, I had no idea that publications could be measured from this perspective.
I have heard you speaking Spanish a couple of times and I really congratulate you on your appetite and willingness to love languages ​​and besides that, mastering them, for me it was not so easy to learn English, much less easy 8 languages!

A hug friend.

Muchas gracias @carlagonz, realmente apreciado! 🤗
No voy a fingir que he dominado todos los idiomas que he aprendido, ni mucho menos.
Pero poder intercambiar unas palabras con tu interlocutor un placer siempre compartido.

Nice to know!

Greetings Michael

Que bonito, yo no hablo ingles, solo mi español y me hace feliz saber que alguien importante como tú, sé interesa en este idioma y como está impactando en Hive.

Gracias por esta publicación que resalta el trabajo de la comunidad hispana.

@arcange, mucho cariño para ti y gracias por generarnos sonrisas. 😁

Tu sonrisa se comparte @marpa 😃

Saludos amigo que bueno que nuestro idioma español esta repuntando en la comunidad de Hive, gracias por presentar este trabajo y éxito.

Muchas gracias @cetb2008

What an interesting read @arcange. When I first started reading your post I was convinced that the Korean community was going to come in second after English. Congratulations to the Spanish speaking community for active participation in making HIVE a vibrant and engaging community.

Unfortunately, I do not speak Spanish so may need to rely on Google Translate to enjoy your content.

I am an active member from the Australian community, although our English in different to the rest of the World's, I think it would be a challenge for you to determine how active and engaging the Australian community are on HIVE. 😜

Love the empirical charts and interesting read, I really appreciate your value for this community @arcange! 👍

I also thought at first that Koreans would score better, but not so much surprised.

... it would be a challenge for you to determine how active and engaging the Australian community are on HIVE

Yes. Unfortunately something I cannot do as the words are the same. Language recognition AI is not yet able to make such a distinction.

Me encanta que cada vez seamos más como comunidad hispanohablante. Gracias por el apoyo!!

I post bilingual post from my cooking account, in English and Hungarian, so you can add Hungarian to the list

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It was not added to the list because overall there are not enough articles published in Hungarian. But here are the publication statistics:

I have never seen a post in Hungarian... is there some community or they are just some random posts? Thanks in advance

I personally do not know of any Hungarian community. I may check who are the Hungarian publishers.

Hi @arcange
Look, I came across this today

https://peakd.com/c/hive-191469

So they will be a community in Hungarian language (for some next future statistics for languages or communities in other languages :) )

At the moment I think it is just created, will see how it goes.

I wish you good luck with your new community!

Not mine, I just found it hehehe and remembered this post :-)

Anyway, if there will be users who will create, there will be more written content on that language so maybe I will write something too :)

Ok, thanks :)

I met just one Hungarian user, but neither he lives in Hungary. He also writes in English

Хочу больше русско- язычного сообщества! #ru )

Именно русскоязычные люди должны развивать свое сообщество.
Проект Голос (classic) и Cyberway, к сожалению, не удалось. Их пользователи должны прийти и сделать свой пост на Hive. 😉

Хороший Русский )

Когда я начинал здесь, моей идеей было публиковаться на испанском и русском языках. Но русская община перешла на golos.io, поэтому я перешел с русского на немецкий. Однако, после того, как я начал размещать сообщения на английском языке, я сократил их до английского и испанского, потому что это довольно много работы, и сообщения становятся слишком длинными, и теперь вы также не можете делать одну и ту же запись на разных языках...

Thank you @jerrytsuseer

Interesting! Good to know. Thank you!

Bonjour. I am wondering if the Chinese is complete in that it includes all the zh representation.
Chinese includes as traditional and simplified character sets。

This is a really interesting research you dit and very important to better know what we have. Is a very useful information for the Sapnish speaking community, since we didn't have such statistics.

Thank you and congratulations for this initiative!

Thank you @ylich

My pleasure!

Perhaps it would be interesting to compare with the population (speakers).
Czechs are doing very well in the competition of much larger nations.

Yes, the Czech community is doing well.

Me encanta que alguien tenga el detalle para analizar, valorar y resaltar el poder del idioma español, super contenta que cada día somos más en hive y ser los segundos luego del inglés. 💓

Qué bien!!! interesante estas gráficas de idiomas..de hecho tuve que buscar alguno en google porque en la vida lo había escuchado mencionar😱 jjj trato de escribir todos mis post en mi lengua materna, pero me ayudo con el traductor DeepL para el inglés e intentar llegar a otras personas... a pesar de la preocupación que provoca que alguna traducción esté demasiado mal😅..ufff voy pero bueno..hasta el momento no se me han quejado 😉

Nice!!! interesting these language charts..in fact I had to look for one in google because in life I had never heard it mentioned😱 jjj I try to write all my posts in my mother tongue, but I help myself with the translator DeepL for English and try to reach other people...despite the worry that causes some translation is too bad😅..ufff I go but well..so far I have not been complained about.😉
