What language is spoken in Singapore?

In Singapore, four official languages are spoken: English, Mandarin, Malay, and Tamil. English serves as the primary language of instruction and is also predominant in business and government settings. Mandarin is prevalent within Singapore's sizable Chinese community, constituting 75 percent of the population. Consequently, Mandarin Chinese is frequently employed in both social and business interactions throughout the city-state.
