There are ads in the NYC subway this week advertising a municipal information service that is available in seven, apparently widely spoken, languages.

The first six are English, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese (of unspecified kind), Russian, and Korean. Who can guess, without looking it up, what the seventh one is?

I know what it is so I won't guess. I was surprised when I saw it, because other languages came to mind first. But it was interesting to see it and the blurb in it.
