The pie chart illustrates the percentage of British students at a single university in England who have the ability to converse in different languages apart from English in 2000 and 2010. The 3 languages considered apart from English include French, German and Spanish. Overall, it can be observed that majority of the people at the university speak only English, with very minor variations in the figures from 2000 to 2010.
Around 30% of the total students spoke only one language in 2000. This number has increased to 35% in 2010. Therefore, most of the people are monolinguist. Around 20% of the students can speak Spanish in 2000, followed by 15% French and 10% German. The dynamics have changed in 2010, where 20% can speak French, 10% can speak German and another 10% can speak Spanish. In both the years, the proportion of students who could speak another language apart from English, French, German and Spanish varied around 10-15%. Therefore, a major proportion of the population is bilingual.
A very small percentage of students are multilingual, that is those who can speak more than 2 languages. The exact percentage varies around 10% in 2000 and 15% in 2010.
