The literacy rate of Tause people in L1 is now can be rated as 10% but L2 is still 5%. 

There are five Bible portions publised recently; Ruth, Jonah, Creation story, the story of Joseph, and the Life of Jesus (based on the Gospel of Luke).

We will add the literacy rates in both L1 and L2 languages as well as the Scripture portions and selections for Tause [tad] in Papua, Indonesia -- for inclusion in the next edition of the Ethnologue.
