Territory-Language Information missing Romanian speakers in United Kingdom

I suggest to use 0.8% as in the census. It’s reasonable to assume that England and Wales is representative of whole UK.

Yes, update rest of UK languages too. Some current data such as “23% of UK population can read and write French” are risible.

I tried searching briefly and I didn’t see anything to support the claim that there would be more Romanian speakers in the UK than listed in the census. I think we should just stick with what’s in the census unless another reference is located.

It’s not on the wikipedia page for the language https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanian_language nor about

In the census data it gives data for people who claim a main language other than English or Welsh. The CLDR data includes those who use a language even if it isn’t their main language.

Census data has Polish 612,000 and Romanian 472,000.
CLDR data has Polish at 2,600,000 / 4% of UK population.
Since 472,000 / 612,000 is about 3/4, I was proposing to use 3% in the CLDR data for Romanian.
In essence, I’d be assuming that the same percentage of people would use Romanian even if it wasn’t their main language as those using Polish even if it isn’t their main language.

But I’m happy to go with 0.8% and just count those whose main language is Romanian.

Shouldn’t we list it as % of people who list it as one of their ‘main’ languages? e.g. ‘Romanian (0.8%, 472,000)’ according in the 1.Main points section of the link included in the task description.

Where was the bit about the relative number of primary language speakers between Romanian and Polish? I didn’t see it?

Is adding Romanian at 3% a reasonable course of action?
