English and Welsh are the country's two official languages. English is spoken by close to 100% of the population and Welsh by around 20%. The use of Welsh in everyday life increases the further west and north one goes in Wales.
English is the predominant language in Wales although some 20% speak the Welsh language (Cymraeg) which appears to be growing in numbers. There are undoubtedly other languages spoken due to recent Immigration.
Wales is bilingual so it has two languages it differs in some areas of Wales for instance in South Wales English is more dominant with it being on the signs first then followed by the welsh translation, but in North Wales Welsh is more dominant than English, for example the police in north wales is Heddlu then the English for police and in south wales police would in English first then in Welsh.

Note, Heddlu is welsh for police
English, although a small minority also speak Welsh.
The main language in Wales is English.
Welsh or Cymraeg is the national language of Wales spoken by about 22% of the Welsh population.

English is the most widely spoken other language.

Actually, only about 15% of Wales is able to speak Welsh. English is spoken by almost 100%.

The 2 official languages of Wales are:

  1. Welsh
  2. English


Technically, both languages are categorized as working languages of the National Assembly, but Welsh is the only one with "official status", making it the sole official language in any part of the United Kingdom.


The vast Majority of people speak English.


Here is a list of the most common and indigenous languages in Wales:

  1. English
  2. Welsh
  3. Welsh Romani (Kååle)
  4. British Sign Language (with Welsh variants)

There are also immigrant languages in Wales, notably South Asian languages such as Punjabi.
