Spanish, the happiest language around the world (really?) In a work published in the review PNAS, they have evaluated 100.000 words spread on 24 corpus of 10 diferent languages in origin and culture: Spanish of Mexico, French, German, Portuguese of Brasil, Korean, Chinese, Russian, Indonesian and Arab. The sources of this corpus of words have been several: Google Books, medias like The New York Times, Twitter, web pages, subtitles of tv and movies, and music lyrics. In all of them has been found that the happy words rules over the sad ones. In every corpus of words analized was found a slant to positive things, although the higher rates were indentified on web pages in Spanish, Google Books in Spanish and Twitter in Spanish, followed by web pages in Portuguese and Twitter in Portuguese. The lower rates were recorded, conversely, in song lyrics in English, subtitles of movies in Korean and Google Books in Chinese.
