You left out a few languages mentioned in this very thread and a few other that I know for sure are represented in the Monastery: (In no particular order) Italian Dutch Flemish Estonian Lithuanian Finnish Danish Norwegian Swedish Serbo-Croatian Albanian Greek Korean Hungarian Rumenian Czech Polish Bulgarian The number of total speakers is not really important.
