Bantawa; Nepali
all
Bantawa is used when speaking to the neighboring Bantawa people. Nepali is the lingua franca and the medium for education. Younger people in general speak Nepali natively and parents are not willing to pass down Chhulung to their children with the concern that speaking Chhulung may influence children's ability to master Nepali.
