"Currently only a few children actively use the Bosmun language. This is probably because parents seem to use more and more Tok Pisin with their children in the home. In fact, Bosmun is losing ground to Tok Pisin in every domain and age group in the Bosmun communities."
- ATITUDE DO FALANTE
- "All five communities reported the Bosmun language as the first language their children should know well. They also included Tok Pisin, English, or both on the list. All the communities reported some kind of negative emotion at the thought of their children losing their vernacular."
