The Russian language has taken second place in the Internet space
In the global Internet space, the Russian language is second only to English.
Margarita Rusetskaya, rector of the State Institute of Russian Language named after A.S. Pushkin, stated this during the VII World Congress of Compatriots Living Abroad, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The data on the number of Internet users and the number of Russian-language sites is interesting.
Only 2,5 percent, and this is only the tenth place of Russian-speaking users on the Internet, providing us with second place in the number of the most popular sites in the Internet space.
Yes, English is the first language, but Russian is the second language, and in terms of the quality of analysis these are informational and political sites.
Another interesting feature is that, along with the Russian language, these sites also contain other large languages. This suggests that we have found a way of neighborhood and integration of the Russian language,” said Rusetskaya.
