"Younger Yaeyama speakers are L1 Japanese speakers, and L2 Yaeyama learners (most people under 40 who learn are involved in traditional Okinawan culture, like the theater, with a growing number of language activists). And basically no children learn it at home from their parents, though there have been efforts to establish a language nest."

Aso states that her "ﬁeldwork observations indicate that Yaeyama is primarily spoken by people over the age of 70. The 2010 national census counted 6,842 inhabitants older than 70 in Yaeyuma’s geographical area. However, one would need to add those people who moved away from Yaeyama to this number and subtract all those who came from outside and settled in Yaeyama. A realistic range for the number of speakers of Yaeyama is thus roughly 7,000 to 10,000."
