About Bislama

There are no words in Bislama that start with the letter "C".  Instead these words will start with J, S or K.  Church becomes "jos", Chief is "jif", Central is "sentrol", Cement is "simen", Cathedral is "katedral" and Canoe is "kenu".  Usually, the "ch" sound becomes J, the long c sound (like in cement) becomes S and the short c sound (like in cook) becomes K.
