Actually, SB is correct. He said primary language, which according to wiki 18% (compared to 13% native English speaker)of Europe's population speaks.
But, English is the most spoken (38%), you are correct there. It is just not the most spoken native language. It is the most spoken language overall, including secondary speakers.
