Currently Ethnologue lists data for Czech languages based on the census 2011. Below are the new numbers from census 2021.

Not sure if it is better to post this as a single contribution for the whole country or separate contributions per language. Please let me know which way is preferred, and I would appreciate if they are counted as separate contributions.

Persons with one or two mother tongues (persons with more mother tongues are counted in both mother tongues):

  • Czech: 9,213,987
