MORE ON SPEAKER NUMBERS
Speaker numbers vary extensively for this language depending on whether the Western (and Central) Torres language is counted as a single language, or whether different numbers of speakers are given for Kalaw Kawaw Ya and Kala Lagaw Ya. There is a sizable ex-pat community in Brisbane and they are working on a language program. The language transmission is fragile, but speakers are strong. Younger speakers are texting in the language, for example.
