6 languages to 10 for me.

Counting to 20 or 100 would be a better measure of knowing the numbers of that language, since some languages become weird at 10 or 70 onwards, for example, french.

Some like Mandarin or malay, we just need to mainly just learn to 10, and it is very consistent and logical after that.

1. Python

for i in range(11):
    print(i)

2. R

for (i in 0:10) {
  print(i)
}

3. C/C++

#include <iostream>

int main() {
  for (int i = 0; i <= 10; ++i) {
    std::cout << i << std::endl;
  }
  return 0;
}

4. Java

public class CountToTen {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    for (int i = 0; i <= 10; i++) {
      System.out.println(i);
    }
  }
}

5. Lua

for i = 0, 10 do
  print(i)
end

6. Bash (Shell Script)

for i in $(seq 0 10); do
  echo $i
done

7. Batch (Windows Command Script)

@echo off
for /l %%i in (0,1,10) do (
  echo %%i
)

8. Go

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
  for i := 0; i <= 10; i++ {
    fmt.Println(i)
  }
}

9. Rust

fn main() {
  for i in 0..=10 {  // 0..=10 includes 10
    println!("{}", i);
  }
}

10. Zig

const std = @import("std");

pub fn main() !void {
    var i: i32 = 0;
    while (i <= 10) {
        std.debug.print("{}\n", .{i});
        i += 1;
    }
}

11. Scala

for (i <- 0 to 10) {
  println(i)
}

12. Fortran

program count_to_ten
  implicit none
  integer :: i

  do i = 0, 10
    print *, i
  end do

end program count_to_ten

13. Haskell

main :: IO ()
main = mapM_ print [0..10]

14. Julia

for i in 0:10
    println(i)
end

English:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Spanish:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

French:

German:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Italian:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Greek:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Mongolian:

᠐ ᠑ ᠒ ᠓ ᠔ ᠕ ᠖ ᠗ ᠘ ᠙ ᠑᠐

English, French, German, Portuguese, Spanish, and Japanese. Nothing special tbh.

Turkish, English, German, Greek, Kurmanji, Japanese

German, Cantonese, mandarin, English, French.

I used to know in Swahili too, does that count ?

Uno, dos, très, quatro, cinco cinco, ses

Lol do we count swedish, norweigan and danish as different languages? Btw other languages are my two native ones: hungarian and english, and then i know spanish because i had it in highschool and i lived 4 months there(cant really speak it anymore sadly) and then croatian because i had one if my friends teach it to me. I used to know some japanese but i also forgot that so without that the total is 5 i guess.

Bonus answer: as for everyday counting i do it either in hungarian or english so no i dont count in my non-native languages. My brain gets fried if i try to do maths for example in swedish. If i do english maths its no problem but i still prefer hungarian when i do large calculations without any paper.

I can count to ten in more language than I am able to speak (I just love learning stuff):

Can count above ten:
German (native), English, Norwegian, Romanian, Russian, Japanese

Can count only up to ten:
French, Polish, Mandarin

I am learning Romanian at the moment, those are 0-10: zero,
unu/ una,
doi/ două,
trei,
patru,
cinci,
șase,
șapte,
opt,
nouă,
zece

I can do it in English, Greek, German, Czech, Italian, Dutch, and Spanish (but I only speak the first 3)

4: English (native), Spanish (learned at school and 1-10 is about all I recall), Mandarin, and Japanese.

5

English, German, Austrian and Eastern Swiss

English, Spanish, russian

4: Persian, English, Chinese, French

I used to be able to do so in Esperanto and Arabic as well but not anymore.

4:

• English (native)
• Spanish (school)
• French (school)
• Korean (Taekwondo)

Hopefully next week I'll add Polish--I'm on day 3 of learning it in an app.

Portuguese, English, Japanese, German and in a good day, Spanish.

Portuguese is native; English and Japanese I learned from consuming content in those languages; German comes from my family (though I recently started studying it too). And Spanish because it's very similar to Portuguese so I just need to remember the differences.
