The pie charts compare the percentages of British students who speak a language other than English at a particular university in 2000 and a decade later.
Overall, while the shares of students speaking Spanish and another language grew, those of students who could speak French and those who did not speak a second language dropped. In contrast, no change was observed in the proportions of student who spoke German and those who did two other languages. Interestingly, Spanish was the most commonly spoken language among students in both years.
In detail, 30% of students could speak Spanish in 2000 while the figure for those who could speak another language was twice as small. A decade later, they both grew by an additional 5%. On the other hand, the figures for French-speaking British students and those who spoke only English declined noticeably. While the former dropped by 5%, the latter did by 10%, both making up a tenth in 2010. Of particular note are the percentages of students speaking German and those speaking two other languages, which represented an identical 10% each in both given years.
