The South African San Institute soon became involved in the pursuit of information on the Nǁng language, and with the help of Vaalbooi they tracked down 25 other people scattered by the eviction who were able to speak or at least understand the language.
Вскоре институт Южной Африки стал участвовать в поиске информации о нлънге, а с помощью Ваалбооя были обнаружены 25 других носителей языка, разбросанные по всей Южной Африке.
