By contrast, a different pattern can be seen in the remaining categories. In detail, the percentage of students who were able to speak Spanish stayed well beyond the others, taking the first position at 30% in 2000 and 35% in 2010 respectively. This was followed by the figure for another language and two other languages, increasing at an average of 5% for each after ten years. A noticeable point is shown in the category of “German only”, which remained stable at 10% over the period time.
