πŸ“ Surrey, BC

The charts below show the proportion of British students at one university in England who were able to speak other languages in addition to English, in 2000 and 2010.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

Answer:

The pie charts illustrate the percentages of British students from one university who were able to speak languages other than English in 2000 and 2010.

Overall, the proportion of students who were able to speak other languages increased in 2010. The most commonly spoken language in both they years was Spanish.

Those who only spoke Spanish accounted for the greatest proportions of students in both 2000 and 2010, at 30 and 35 percent respectively. Students who spoke another language and two other languages became the second and third largest groups in 2010, with an increase to 20 and 15 percent. The proportion of those who spoke no other languages, in comparison, dropped by half to only 10 percent.

Of those who were able to speak other languages, French-only speakers were the only group whose proportion experienced a decline from 15 to 10 percent, while the proportion of German-only speakers stayed at 10 percent.
