"It is difficult to state the total number of Roviana speakers with certainty. Most estimates rely on census data collected decades ago... Based on the current estimates, it seems likely that there are from 5,000 to 10,000 native speakers of Roviana."

"There are no published data on the rate of intergenerational transmission of the Roviana language. However, I can provide some insights based on my own visits to Roviana communities. In my experience there were children speaking Roviana to each other in every town or village I visited... However, in both Tolavae and Munda I observed an asymmetry in how children use Roviana: boys use it when speaking with each other, while girls tend to speak to each other in Solo Pijin. It is not clear what conditions this pattern, or even the rate of prevalence; nonetheless it is an important concern for Roviana language conservation."
