[Link](https://www.ef.co.uk/epi/) to the data. Map is OC, feel free to use/share
EDIT: The number for Ukraine is 526
Seems about right.
Woah, Germany has definitely improved. Southern Europe too.
But don’t be a wuss, include UK in the survey!
Shame there’s not data for UK…
Page 46 in the report:
>Sampling Biases
>The test-taking population represented
in this Index is self-selected and not
guaranteed to be representative. Only those
who want to learn English or are curious
about their English skills will participate in
one of these tests. This could skew scores
lower or higher than those of the general
population.
>The EF SET is free and online, so anyone
with an Internet connection can participate.
Almost all of our test takers are working
adults or young adults finishing their
studies. People without Internet access
would be automatically excluded. The EF
SET site is fully adaptive and 46% of test
takers in 2024 completed the exam from
a mobile device. In parts of the world
where Internet usage is low, we would
expect the impact of an online format to be
strong. This sampling bias would tend to
pull scores upward by excluding poorer and
less educated people, and those living in
areas with little or no Internet connectivity.
Nevertheless, open access online tests
have proven effective in gathering very
large amounts of data about a range of
indicators, and we believe they provide
valuable information about global English
proficiency levels.
Edit: Just to add to the context, the test take 50 or 90 minutes to complete so it requires some dedication. See here: https://www.efset.org
You can get data from Cyprus, Bosnia… but not Slovenia?
Russia so close the Baltics? No way. Not credible.
Did a roadtrip to Czechia through Poland. In Poland surprisingly often they didn’t speak English so I had to speak Russian with a faux Polish accent. Granted I was both in big cities but also countryside, so maybe not too surprising. But in Czechia everyone I spoke to had great English skills. At least in Prague and Brno. Maybe not so in other towns.
Where’s the UK and Ireland smh.
(yes this is slightly sarcastic, though it’d be interesting to know where they would rank)
Turk from turkey living in turkey here- this is definitely false- no turk outside of a small minority can speak English worth a damn, it should be lower.
Damn Brits don’t even know their own language! /s
I’m from Spain and I confirm the Portuguese proficiency in English. I wish that was our case…
Not an excuse to not learn the language of the country if you move there, btw. Tired of being spoken to in english when I’m out and about.
Flanders in Belgium scored highest as a region (654), highest region in Netherlands is Overijssel (642), but Walloonia brought down the Belgian average (543).
What did the British score
Besser ois die Deutschen.
lol i don’t believe this apply to where I live.. AT ALL
Did they measure Serbia solely by the population of Belgrade? I’m pretty sure English is useless outside of Belgrade (and maybe Novi Sad)
Where Slovenia at? Who be ignorin’ my alpine homeboys?
Also known as “map of cultural domination”
France, Spain and Italy looking at Portugal with envy.
Hard to believe that Germany is higher than Norway
As a Croat really nice to see the country being second best. It makes sense because I literally don’t know a single person that cannot speak English.
Now do a map showing the percentage of population that speaks English. It will tell a very different story.
Croatia doing quite well! I remember in primary school we sometimes would hear a Scandinavians speak English. It was flawless. But now I can just know it is Scanglish 🙂 Why is Slovenia the same color as UK?
Once the rest of the old people die in Greece, it will become higher.
Yea… I don’t believe it for Germany. I’ve been living here for 4y now and barely met a few people that speak English (and a broken English too..). Maybe I’m biased, but I don’t believe it
