The main ethnic groups are White, African American, Native American, Alaska Native, Pacific Islander, Asian, and Native Hawaiian.

White=72.4%

African American=12.6%

Asian=4.8%

Alaska Native=0.9%

Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander=0.2%

Other 6.2%

Two or more races 2.9%

The 5 most languages spoken in the US are English, Spanish, Chinese, French, and Tagalog. But in all there are 25 languages spoken in the US. I am unsure of the percentages of those though.
