Most speakers are over the age of 50 and are bilingual in Miyako and Japanese.
"Younger Miyako speakers are L1 Japanese speakers, and L2 Miyako learners (most people under 40 who learn are involved in traditional Okinawan culture, like the theater, with a growing number of language activists). And basically no children learn it at home from their parents, though there have been efforts to establish a language nest."
Japanese
"'Language nest' is implemented at the community level, though the government has issued statements that it is certainly not opposed."
It's not written until quite recently and speakers don't write much.
