Languages learning

In my language learning circle, I find there are a few people studying Chinese. The languages that people study the most are English, Korean, Japanese, Spanish, German, French, Italian and so on. This case is out of my expectations. I have thought that Chinese should have been the language that people study the most because it is a language that most people use and China also is the second largest economy in the world. But the fact is that languages in European and American countries are the languages people study the most. The languages of Asian countries are only Japanese and Korean, which people study the most. Because the number of Chinese learners is very lower, I have few chances to help them. Do you know the reasons?

The reason for my correction is not grammar, but meaning. When you list so many languages, then say "and so on," as a reader I do not have enough context to actually know what other languages this means.

Use "should" if you thought that it would be good for more people to study Chinese or you were making a value judgement that people should choose to study Chinese. Use "would" if you thought that it would make sense (in more a neutral way) for Chinese to be a popular language.

But the fact is that languages in European and American countries are the languages people study the most.

I think "reality" would be a little better than "fact," but both work.

The languages of Asian countries are only Japanese and Korean, which people study the most.


The languages of Asian countrimost studied Asian languages are only Japanese and Korean, which people study the most. The most studied Asian languages are only Japanese and Korean.

The languages of Asian countrionly popular Asian languages are only Japanese and Korean, which people study the most. The only popular Asian languages are Japanese and Korean.

The phrase "languages of Asian countries" works, but I prefer "Asian languages" because it is concise.

I changed "them" to "people" because the number of learners being low means less chances to help "people" overall, but wouldn't affect your chances to help people who are already learning Chinese, which the "them" in your sentence refers to.

The original sentence needs a phrase clarifying about what you are asking, especially since based on your last sentence it might seem like you are asking why you have "few chances to help" rather than why few people are learning Chinese.
