My opinion about this, is that it appears to depend on how a particular person's brain is wired, as to which language(s) they will understand faster and like. There can be a "winner" in terms of which language more people gravitate towards, but then that is very relative to many factors, including corporate influence.

People also put themselves into bubbles. Once in, they can filter out other languages (with all kinds of excuses), and be overly focused on certain families or only specific languages.
