本文介绍了1996年对德克萨斯州波尔克县的库沙玛-库沙塔印第安人保留地进行的一项调查结果。大约有100名亚拉巴马和库沙塔部落的成员参加了会议。虽然很明显，亚拉巴马语和库沙塔语被部落的年轻成员越来越少地习得和保持，但这些语言仍然被广泛使用。对保持这些语言能力的总体态度是积极的，有相当多的年轻人仍然能够流利地使用这些语言。这项调查强调了家庭在语言保持过程中的作用。
This article presents the results of a survey carried out on the Alabama-Coushatta Indian Reservation in Polk County, Texas, in 1996. Approximately one hundred members of the Alabama and Coushatta tribes participated. While it is clear that the Alabama and Coushatta languages are acquired and maintained less and less by the younger members of the tribes, these languages are still widely spoken. The overall attitude towards maintaining competence in these languages is positive, and there is a considerable number of young people who are still fluent. This survey underlines the role of the home in the language maintenance process.
