Nearly the entire community has switched to Indonesian.
According to Himmelmann, while most sources list 350 speakers, most Taje say they can't speak the language well. Intergenerational transmission is rare. There may be only a few elderly speakers left

About 200 persons whose parents were both Taje live in a village near Parigi. Considerably more know some Taje because one of their parents was Taje. However, most speakers do not know the language well, except for one old man. The language is heavily influenced by neighbouring languages. One hundred and fifty more had to be resettled near Ampibabo, 50km north of Parigi, and about thirty more even further north. The language was regarded as nearly extinct in 1902 by a visiting linguist, and is now certainly moribund and nearly extinct.
