Comment:
Sunwar (5694-suz) = Threatened (80 percent certain, based on the evidence available) ("Mixed use: Home, friends, religion, work. Adolescents and older. Some use among children. Language is passed down to children only in village areas (Toba, Toba, and Rai 2002)" Younger people use Nepali [npi] for trade and official purposes with low proficiency (1998 SIL).)
