As of 2017, very few indeed. there may be a tiny handful of people in remote areas of North and mid-Wales who find speaking English difficult and struggle with it, but they would not number much more than two or three dozen at the very most. However, a fifth of the population, whilst being able to speak English, use Welsh as their first language, and the number of Welsh people who know SOME Welsh, even if it's only a few words and phrases, is somewhere between two-thirds and three-quarters.

Around 98% of the total population of Portugal speaks Portuguese. Portuguese is the official language of the Republic. It's the country's most widely known, spoken and understood language. But its use isn't universal, because of monolingual speakers of Mirandese, and because of sign language users. Mirandese is spoken in northern Portugal. Mirandese and Portuguese are the only officially recognized languages in the Republic. For Mirandese has the unique, special status of regional language of national importance to the Republic. It's estimated to be spoken by about 12,000 individuals. Of that number, 7,000 are estimated to be bilingual speakers of Mirandese and Portuguese.

For there are anywhere from 26%-32% of the total Portuguese population that's bilingual in Portuguese and English.
