- Comment:
- Cara (483-cfd) = Threatened (60 percent certain, based on the evidence available) (The Cara tend to know Hausa and some younger people also speak English, but generally do not speak the languages of their neighbours. The older people have the impression that younger people are giving up the language in favour of Hausa. It is clear that younger people do not have an easy command of the complex morphology required to be a competent speaker, although this may develop slowly.)
