The two pie charts illustrate that six language groups made up the whole British
students
of a university in England who spoke languages
other than English
in 2000 and 2010.
In 2000, there were 20% of the students
merely spoke English
. The percentage of people who spoke two languages
, including French, German, Spanish, or another language, was 70%. Students
who were able to speak three languages
were the minority (10%). In 2010, British students
who only spoke English
dropped considerably from 20% to 10% while
students
who spoke two and three languages
both increased by a total of 5%. When it comes to the details, students
who spoke French and Spanish in addition
to English
both went up by 5% whereas
those who spoke German maintained the same percentage.
Overall
, the language ability of British students
at one university improved from 2000 to 2010. It is worth noticing that monolingual students
declined to half of the old figure while
the percentage of bilingual and trilingual students
both went up.Submitted by BeckyJ on
