Footnote 3

The category 'Total - Single and multiple responses of language spoken at home' indicates the number of respondents who reported each language, either as their only response, or in combination with another language. Total responses represent the sum of single and multiple responses of the language spoken at home received in the census.

Return to footnote 3 referrer

Footnote 4

A single response to the language spoken at home occurs when a respondent provides one language only.

Return to footnote 4 referrer

Footnote 5

A multiple response to the language spoken at home occurs when a respondent provides two or more languages.

Footnote 6

This is a total population count. The sum of the languages in this table is greater than the total population count because a person may report more than one language in the census.
