- Comment:
- Behoa (1361-bep) = Endangered (100 percent certain, based on the evidence available) (Percentage of people by age using Behoa: 70-100yo 100%, 50-69yo 100%, 30-49yo 100%, 20-29yo, 75% (most have receptive knowledge), 10-19yo 25% (many understand but reply in Indonesian), 0-9yo 10%.
Children receive some formal education in Behoa at school, but few parents teach it to their children.)
