List of languages in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest

The following is a list of languages used in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest since the contest's inception in 2003, which includes the year, country, song and artist through which each language made its debut. There is a rule in place that stipulates that any given song must be sung in one of the national languages of the country it represents. However, it is permissible for a song to contain lyrics in other languages on top of this.

The song that contained the most languages was the Serbian entry in 2006. The Serbian song actually only contains two lines (found in its chorus) in Serbian, while the rest is sung in the English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian and Japanese languages. Also in the 2015 song 'Dambaje' for Albania which contains 8 languages (Albanian, German, French, Spanish, English, Italian, Slovene & Turkish) one off which have never been used in a entry before Turkish)

Belarusian, Japanese and Latin have been featured in songs of the Junior contest, but they have never been used in songs of the senior Eurovision Song Contest.
