What is the most commonly spoken language in Europe?

Besides English of course. I’m thinking geographically, not the amount of population who speaks the language.

According with EU government statistics, German is the most spoken language (as first language) with 24% of populatio, followed by French 16% and English 16%. However, spoken as both mother tongue and foreign language English is the most spoken one with 47%, followed by German 32% and French 28%,
