The size of the table above might give the mistaken impression that these datasets cover a large proportion of the world’s languages. It is therefore important to realize that, while indeed a large number of languages are currently supported, these only represent a very small fraction of the languages that are currently spoken around the planet. The following progress bar gives a rough estimate of how many languages are covered by OLDI datasets, compared to the approximate total number of currently spoken languages (based on Glottolog data).
