"La communauté yuhup n'est plus une communauté monolingue. Les jeunes et adultes (qui sont la majorité de la population) connaissent, à divers degrés, l'espagnol ou le makuna ... leur utilisation se limite uniquement aux domaines relatifs au contact ... Avec l'introduction de la scolarisation en espagnol (et la présence d'un maître d'école hispanophone), tous sont maintenant en contact direct et permanent avec cette langue."
[The yuhup community is not a monolingual community. Young people and adults (who are the majority of the population) know, to varying degrees, Spanish or Makuna ... their use is limited to only areas relating to contact ... With the introduction of schooling in Spanish (and the presence of Spanish-speaking school teacher), all are now in direct and continuous contact with that language.]
