Abstract
To write an abstract, finish your paper first, then type a summary that identifies the purpose, problem, methods, results, and conclusion of your work. After you get the details down, all that’s left is to format it correctly. Since an abstract is only a summary of the work you’ve already done, it’s easy to accomplish! 2.Introduction
Background History
Welsh language is one of the oldest languages in Europe as it approximately derived from 4000 years ago. [3] According to some previous studies of Wales and the Welsh, they reflected that Wales is a country which cultivated unique tradition and culture. [1] Therefore, Welsh plays an important role in cultural diversity in the UK. However, in the past, Welsh speakers were not welcomed by some people, which resulted in a decline of its usage. The situation of declining did not level off until late 1990s when a series of laws were passed to benefit the expansion of the usage of Welsh.
Introduction
The history and the economic benefits of the Welsh implies the necessity to prevent the decline of the usage of this language, so the analyse of the census for the Welsh speakers is really important. Some previous studies showed that over the last decade, more than a half of people in Wales could speak (the) Welsh. [2][1]One survey illustrated that this indicated a slight increase of the usage of the language. [1] Nevertheless, some website claims that (the) Welsh is facing the danger of dying out, because the average age of (its) speakers is getting elder than those in the past. And the native speaker has been decreasing. [1]
Purpose: To make a few contributions for the analysis of the data about the Welsh usage in Aberystwyth, the report will illustrate some data about the Welsh speakers in this place and try to analyse whether the language usage is decreasing in the place.
Methods
Where did I get the sample? How?
The methodology in the survey of the report relied on the questionnaires distributed to 35 people who live in Aberystwyth (not including international students and tourists). One map, which illustrated the proportions of average proportion of those Welsh speakers in the different locations in Anerstwyth in 2011, showed that the spots where we got samples were all with a range between 20% – 40% of Welsh speakers. The sample group of the people were collected from many different place, (such as a theatre, coffee shop, the place along the seaside, supermarket and hospital) to diversify the sources of people so that mostly likely to decrease the possible sample deviation.
When comparing the data collected by our group with the similar data from a previous census made in Aberystwyth in 2011, it can be noticed that the data of the percentages of people who never used Welsh in those places or with those people has mainly decreased.
It is fair to say that this comparison is too weak to claim the possibility that the Welsh usage has declined, because some data that may not truly reflect the real situation at the moment (as the reason which has been discussed above), and because some options in the questionnaires between our groups and the previous one in 2011 are not entirely the same. However, at least, there are three options in these questionnaires are entirely the same. The comparison of these questionnaires indicates that the figures about the options of Family and Friends has increased by nearly a quarter (23%) and one sixth (15.8%) respectively, which are much more than the slight increase for figure about the option of Shops (5%).
Therefore, if the random sample chosen by our group can effectively represent the whole population in Aberystwyth , the comparison of these figures probably could reflect the following information:
Conclusion
This survey demonstrates that the proportion of the Welsh speakers in Aberystwyth has slightly increased. However, the situation of the Welsh language is not optimistic , because though some of these speakers with comparatively low abilities to use the Welsh language. Secondly, the average proportion of the time for three fourths of the people who can speak welsh generally used half of their time in Other languages rather than Welsh. Thirdly, Comparing with the data of the census of the Welsh language use in Aberystwyth in 2011, there are some clues appears that people in Aberystwyth nowadays are less likely to use Welsh to speak in some specific places or to speak with some specific kinds of people.
