Claim: Three languages are spoken in Greater Glasgow, Scotland (comprised of more than 790 islands), which had a population of 985,290 in 2016.
Evidence: English, Scots, Gaelic However, the population estimate for the Greater Glasgow 'settlement' (a chain of continuously populated postcodes) in mid-2016 was 985,290 – the reduced figure explained by the removal of the Motherwell & Wishaw (124,790), Coatbridge & Airdrie (91,020) and Hamilton (83,730) settlement areas east of the city due to small gaps between the populated postcodes. In addition, Scotland includes more than 790 islands; principally within the Northern Isles and the Hebrides archipelagos.
