Like many European languages, Spanish has accumulated and integrated a number of English words – or Anglicisms – and many of these are identical to the original English, while others have been adapted slightly in pronunciation or spelling.

Recently, the British Council published the results of its latest annual Language Trends survey of language teaching and learning in English primary, secondary and independent schools. While we may not have a crystal ball or be able to predict the future, these survey results can give us an indication of the language skills that current and future students may be leaving school with and taking into the workforce.
