语言环境评论
"Contacts with the outside world are increasing. Already in the 1970s Blagar was no longer used in the church or the mosque, but had been replaced by Indonesian. At school the use of Blagar was discouraged to put it mildly; Indonesian was the sole language of instruction. For secondary and higher education Blagar people must migrate to Kalabahi or further afield. In the early 2000s, electricity reached Pura Island, and with it came television, another source of influence of Indonesian. As a result, bilingualism in Blagar and Indonesian has become generalized.""

"A dictionary of Blagar exists in manuscript form and is currently being prepared for publication."

"Varieties of Blagar are spoken in all but two of the villages on the island of Pura (a dead volcano of over 1,000m high), on the smaller island of Tereweng south of Pura, and in a number of villages on the east coast of Pantar opposite Pura and Tereweng. Outside this core area there are scattered groups of Blagar migrants, mainly in the regional and provincial capitals of Kalabahi and Kupang."
