Bau Tailevu Dialect

Hello : depends entirely on who you're addressing. Generally its BULA ; but if you're greeting someone of higher status ( Talatala,Teacher, your Boss ) NI SA BULA VINAKA / NI SA BULA VINAKA SAKA https://twitter.com/S_yabia/status/1252413756673388552
But if we were to greet a Turaga /Liuliu ni Yavusa , we do not say Bula Vinaka but 'Tama' DUAA OOOOOO

Come - LAKO MAI , but in a more polite way NI GOLE MAI

Yes - IO , responding to someone of higher status or rank IO SAKA

Standup - DURI / NI DURI SAKA
This one ? - KOYA QO ?/ KOYA QOKA?

Run here now - CICI MADA MAI / CICI MAI KE ( WALEGA SRGA QO )

Bauan Dialect varies on whom we're addressing or speaking to. Believe this is the same for all dialects here in Fiji. Hence making us more unique in our own ways .
