The charts below show the proportions 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.
The pie charts illustrate the percentage breakdown of undergraduates in one England university that can communicate in other languages besides English in 2000 and 2010. Overall, the most popular second language in British was Spanish, while German-speaking students were the least throughout the surveyed period.
First of all, it can be seen from the charts that students who were monolingual halved its proportion from 20% to 10% during the decade. Similarly, students speaking French only as an additional language slightly shrank its share by 5% from 15% to 10%. Nevertheless, students who could speak French remained the minimum portion with 10% in the same period.
By contrast, as the most common foreign language, the rate of Spanish-speaking students in British continually preserved its top place with the increase from 30% to 35% within the decade. Moreover, the same trend also could be viewed in the bilingual group of another language and two other languages, which both rose its composition by 5%, from 15% to 20% and 10% to 15% respectively.

Description: that here modifying university? or undergraduates? or percentage breakdown? it is not clear.
