Chinese, Japanese, Mongol, Russian, Tibetan, Formosan, Korean, Vietnamese, Arabic, Persian...
This is only ten of Asia's major and some not so major languages that Asian people speak.
Asia is a continent containing many countries and stretches from Japan, China, Phillipines, and Indonesia in the east to Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Saudi Arabia and Yemen in the west. That covers several dozen nations and dozens of major languages and local dialects.
Here are a few more languages to add to the list:
Bahasa Indonesian, Philipino, Papuan languages, Malay, Tamil, Burmese, Thai, Lao, Khmer, Kazakh, Hindi, Bihari, Telugu, Marathi, Bengali, Pushtu, Uzbek, Singhalese, Punjabi, Nepali, Kurdish, Azerbaijani, Hebrew, Armenian, Urdu, Baluchi, Gujarati, Turkish, Kashmiri...

There are hundreds, maybe thousands, of languages spoken in Asia. China has many, of which Mandarin is probably the foremost, and India has a multitude. Even most smaller Asian countries have more than one each.

There are about 1000 different languages spoken on the continent of Eurasia (not including Indonesia and the Philippines).
LATER EDIT: Uh, Asia is not a "country", Twilight. Asia is a CONTINENT (China is a country).

Well which specific asian group are you referring to? Be more specific? There are many different types of asian people and they all speak different languages.
For example: I am Pacific Islander aka Filipino and the native language from the Philippines is Tagalog
