Bislama is an English-lexified creole and one of three official languages of Vanuatu, alongside English and French. It is the country's main lingua franca, with about 10,000 native speakers and 200,000+ second-language speakers across more than 100 indigenous language communities. The name comes from bêche-de-mer (sea cucumber), a 19th-century trade good.
Bislama uses an English-derived vocabulary with Melanesian phonology and grammar. Familiar examples include 'tank yu tumas' (thank you very much), 'wanem nem blong yu?' (what is your name?) and 'long' as a general preposition. The pronoun system distinguishes inclusive and exclusive 'we' (yumi vs mifala) — a feature absent in English.
