"The figures underlying the map on Shua-Tshwa are based on surveys conducted in 2008 by Andy Chebanne (p.c.). According to his observations, many of the Shua-Tshwa people have abandoned their language. While older sources still assume 15000 - 20000 speakers (Anderson & Janson 1997:138) for this dialect cluster, Chebanne (Chebanne, p.c.) counted 4100 only."

“...when a person speaks Shua khoe, s/he can easily be understood by |Hai khoe or Tshire-Tshire who speak different Khoe languages, and therefore, the interlocutors are very often, if not always, not obliged to switch to the linguistic code of the other when engaged in the same conversation.”
