besides

English at a university in Britain in the years 2000 and 2010.

while

the opposite was true for the left features.

Moreover

, those who could just use their mother tongue took up the largest percentage. As can be seen, in 2000, the portion of learners speaking simply English was recorded to be at the top of the list with 30% and rose to 35% in 2010.

Likewise

, those speaking one or two languages stood at 10% and 15% respectively at

first,

then

they witnessed an increase of 5% over the next 10 years.

By contrast

, individuals with French only decreased from 15% in 2000 to 10% in the

last

year.

Similarly

, the sum of communicators with only Spanish in 2000 was 20%, yet dropped to 10% within a decade.

However
