Life in the UK Test 36
The Life in the UK test is usually taken is English, although special arrangements can be made if you wish to take it in French.
Correct Answer: False
False. The Life in the UK test is taken in English by default, but special arrangements can be made to take it in Welsh or Scottish Gaelic — not French. These are the two indigenous languages of Wales and Scotland respectively.
No provisions are made to take the test in any other languages, including French. The test must be taken at an approved test centre, and applicants must demonstrate a sufficient level of English to qualify. The Welsh and Gaelic options reflect the UK's commitment to its indigenous languages.
