pie charts illustrate the percentage of Briton

-third of
students
in England spoke Spanish as opposed to 10% of
two
groups of British
students
who can speak
two
languages
and can speak only German. There were
two
foreign
languages
that
pupils
were able to speak in the same proportions (15%), with
one
French and another
one
international
languages
.
However
, 20% of Britain
students
couldn’t speak other linguistics, being the second largest group on the chart.
On the other hand
,
although
in 2010,
students
who can speak Spanish still at the largest contribution,
pupils
who can speak another foreign language were higher than those in 2000.
Moreover
, there was an increase in the group of
students
who have the ability to speak
two
other
languages
, increasing from 10% in 2000 to 15 % in 2010. For the remaining
pupils
, they were able to speak French and German about 10% in each language. And another 10% of British
pupils
hadn’t had the ability to speak any other language except English, decreasing in the percentage compared with 2000.
