"In the 1980s there were approximately ten speakers left. When we carried out our survey in 2005 we met with three speakers who seemed to be confident about their competence in the language... All are nearing the age of about 100 years. In the generation below them there are some, not many, people who are able to speak some Yaaku, but not very naturally, and who can understand Yaaku...
