The language are spoken in Shefa Province in central Vanuatu on the islands of Efate and the many small islands of the Shepherd Islands. The main difference in recent classifications is the position of the languages within Oceanic and whether to include the South Efate language of the capital, Port Vila. LanguagesLynch, Ross, & Crowley (2002) include just two languages:[1]
Clark (2009) includes South Efate:[2]
(Ross et al. had counted Eton and Lelepa as dialects of the other languages.) According to Thieberger, Efatese is an artificial mixture of the languages of Efate.
