Bislama - Internal Variation

Internal Variation

Dialects exist, based mainly on different pronunciations in different areas which stem from the different sounds of the native languages. The future tense marker can be heard to be said as: Bambae, Mbae, Nambae, or Bae.

So in the capital city it is common to hear 'computer'; in other places you might hear 'ordinateur'.
