Huh?[edit]

According to a Eurobarometer survey conducted in 2012,[7] English was the most commonly known foreign language in Bulgaria (25% claimed workable knowledge of it), followed by Russian (23%), and German (8%).

In the 2012 Eurobarometer survey,[8] however, the situation was different, with 25% of people saying they know English well enough in order to be able to have a conversation, and only 23% answering Russian (a decrease of 12 points). This is because many of the people who learned Russian at school are from an older generation and some are now deceased or as time has elapsed, have forgotten how to speak the language. When asked which two languages, other than their mother tongue, would be the most useful for children to learn in their future, an overwhelming majority of respondents said English (90%), with German coming second (36%), and Russian third (14%).[9]
