The number of people who identify themselves as Paumarí is comparatively high (around 600 people), but the number of actual speakers is on the decline … not more than 200 people speak the language. All children speak Portuguese as their first language. People in their forties and younger are more comfortable in Portuguese than Paumarí. And if they use Paumarí at all, they tend to simplify the linguistic structures. (p.236)
