“但是我们同时也看到，报考其他一些语言的人数有所增加。”

“What this means is Chinese…is now more popular than German. So maybe young people are beginning to think about what languages will be useful to them in the future.”

“这意味着汉语现在比德语更受欢迎。也许年轻人开始思考未来哪些语言对他们更有用。

French remains the most popular modern language A-level followed by Spanish, but both have seen a fall in entries compared to last year by eight and four percent respectively.

法语仍然是A-level中选考人数最多的现代语言，其次是西班牙语。但是与去年相比，这两种语言的报考人数分别减少了8%和4%。

Russian has also increased in popularity since last year by 3.4 percent, from 1,122 to 1,160. Arabic, however, has declined by 5.4 percent, from 782 entries last year to 740 this year.

俄语的报考人数也比去年增加了3.4%，从1122人增加到1160人。阿拉伯语的报考人数减少了5.4%，从去年的782人减少到今年的740人。

Suzanne O'Farrell, curriculum and assessment specialist at the Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL), said: "We're seeing German just moving into extinction really. It is in severe decline."

英国校长协会的课程与评估专家苏珊娜·奥法雷尔说：“我们看到报考德语的人数正在大幅减少，情况真的很严重。”
