"Eight of the respondents feel that Tobian will soon disappear and nine will be bothered if it does disappear (no one replied that they would not be bothered).

The changes in the Tobian language were said to be also a result of the young people who commonly speak Sonsorolese and Echangese and then are unable to understand their Tobian elders. Change is thought as well to come from people moving away from Tobi and from Echang.
Almost half the respondents feel that the ability to speak Palauan and/or English is necessary for success in Palau."
