Other languages in Vienna. English is the number one foreign language Austrians learn and speak, but you may come across people who understand at least basic Spanish, French, or Italian too. However the prevalence of these languages is much lower among Austrian population compared to the prevalence of English. While not that much spread in Vienna, Italian is widely spoken in the southern regions of Austria (Styria, Carinthia, and Tyrol).
Was wondering what is the most common language spoken. I was originally told that Belgians speak French, so we bought a couple of handy phrasebooks for Dutch and French. Then I found out that Belgians speak Flemish which I guess is very similar to Dutch. Wasn't quite sure if the French book is even necessary then.
