"There are still a few people who can speak the language fluently and who use it with each other, though for a restricted range of functions. A good number of people of all ages (including children) use some Bundjalung words in their English (for such things as turtle, echidna, witchetty grubs, bodily functions, food and cigarettes), and a number (prticularly at Baryulgil) use soem Bundjalung phrases within English."

"In the first place, a sizeable number of Aboriginal people of Bundjalung ancestry want to know more about this part of their inheritance. Some of them remember the days when use of the language was strongly discouraged by white disfavor and by the perception of their older relatives that it was to their advantage to use English. Many people recently have come to the realization that it should not be a thing of shame to use their old language...now those who remember only snatches of the language want to revive it and learn more."
