More than one in five American residents now speak a language other than English at home, according to new research based on 2016 US Census Bureau data.
根据基于美国人口普查局2016年的数据的最新研究显示,如今超过1/5的美国居民在家使用英语以外的语言。

由移民研究中心负责进行的这项研究显示,在家不说英语的5岁及以上的美国居民达到创纪录的6550万人。

其中,2610万人(39.8%)对美国人口普查局称自己英语讲得并不是很好。这一数字完全基于受访者的主观看法。

On an objective test of English literacy, prior CIS research showed that even among immigrants who have lived in the country for more than 15 years, 43 percent score at the "below basic" level, which is sometimes equated to functional illiteracy.
在一项有关英语读写能力的客观测试中,移民研究中心之前的研究显示,即使是在这个国家居住超过15年的移民,43%的人的得分“低于基本水平”,这有时等同于功能文盲。
