The given bar graph compares the number of French adults whose parents spoke five different types of regional language when they were children and the number of adults who speak French regional language to their children.

Overall, Occitan language was the most spoken language during their chilhood while Corsican was least spoken both habitually and occasionally. In contrast, those grown up children now use Alsatian language more in comparison to others.

Looking to the detailed figures, Occitan was the primary regional language used by just over 60,000 parents habitually and more than 1million parents occasionally. Similarly, Alsatian follows as the second largest language spoken habitually used by 60,000 people but was used by only around 24,000 people occasionally. Moreover, Creole and Corsican was the least spoken language, featuring 10,000 and aroung 90,000 parents habitually and around 12,000 and 10,000 parents occasionally.

Regarding the grown up adults who speak a regional language to their children, Alsatian dominates featuring 40,000 adults. Occitian follows as the second most used language with 25,000 adults. Subsequently, Breton is third and Creole is fourth, accounting around 90,000 and 80,000 adults respectively. In contrast, Crosican stands out the least used language recording around 50,000 adults.

Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by describing both charts, but it contains significant inaccuracies in the data presented. Many figures are incorrectly reported (e.g., Occitan habitually at 60,000 instead of 300,000, Alsatian occasionally at 24,000 instead of 75,000, and several others). These errors detract from the overall task achievement. The report also lacks a clear structure, with the overview being somewhat vague and not fully summarizing the key trends. To improve, ensure that data is accurately transcribed from the visual, organize the information into clear paragraphs (e.g., one for each chart), and provide a more precise and comprehensive overview. Additionally, avoid vague phrases like 'just over' and 'around' when exact figures are available, and proofread for grammatical errors (e.g., 'chilhood', 'Occitian', 'Crosican').

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction, an overview, and paragraphs for each chart. However, the flow is sometimes disrupted by awkward phrasing and unclear referencing (e.g., 'those grown up children now use...'). The use of cohesive devices is limited and sometimes inaccurate (e.g., 'Looking to the detailed figures' is informal and not precise). To improve, use a wider range of linking words and phrases (e.g., 'In terms of', 'Regarding', 'Turning to') and ensure that each paragraph has a clear central topic. Also, avoid informal expressions and ensure that the progression from one idea to the next is smooth and logical.

Lexical Resource

The report uses some appropriate vocabulary for describing data (e.g., 'habitually', 'occasionally', 'dominates', 'accounting for'). However, there are several inaccuracies and repetitions (e.g., 'language' is repeated, 'grown up adults' is redundant, 'Crosican' is a misspelling). The range of vocabulary is limited, and some word choices are not precise (e.g., 'used by just over 60,000 parents' is unclear). To improve, use a wider range of synonyms and more precise terms (e.g., 'the most widely spoken', 'a minority of', 'significantly higher than'). Also, ensure correct spelling of all terms and avoid informal or vague language. Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains a number of grammatical errors and awkward structures that affect clarity. For example, subject-verb agreement errors ('Creole and Corsican was'), incorrect verb forms ('used by just over 60,000 parents habitually' should be 'used habitually by just over 60,000 parents'), and unclear phrasing ('those grown up children now use'). There is also inconsistent use of articles and prepositions. To improve, practice using a wider range of sentence structures, ensure subject-verb agreement, and proofread for common errors. Also, use more complex sentences with subordinate clauses to demonstrate grammatical flexibility.
