Southern Pomo is no longer a spoken language. It has not been a language of daily use during this century, and there are no fluent speakers now living.
Though no one under 90 is fluent, there are scores of tribal members who learned dozens of words as children, and a subset of these words have been passed down to subsequent generations. (p. 17)
English
Southern Pomo speakers lived in villages from as far south as present-day Santa Rosa and Sebastopol north to the greater Cloverdale area. To the west of Cloverdale, speakers lived along Dry Creek, and a small number lived along the highlands west of the Russian River valley and in the redwood forests and coastal land along the Pacific between the Kashaya and the Central Pomo speakers.

Southern Pomo is moribund. No child born after 1920 has learned the language, and as of 2012 there is only one confirmed fluent speaker and another speaker who maintains native phonology and spoke the language as a young man. The remaining speakers do not know each other, and Southern Pomo has therefore not been used as a medium of communication for decades. Though no one under 90 is fluent, there are scores of tribal members who learned dozens of words as children, and a subset of these words have been passed down to subsequent generations. (pp. 28-29.)
