"[A]ll interactions the people have with their children are exclusively in Tok Pisin. ... [t]he community at large rarely uses Awar in any domain. The ability to hear and speak the language still resides in most of the grandparent generation and some of the parent generation, but regular use of the language has died out."
- ATITUDE DO FALANTE
- "The Awar in all three villages recognize that their language is in an endangered position. Most of them speak only of trying to record their language so it is not lost entirely. Only a few spoke of trying to revitalize it."
