The Phinbellan language (Phineaner: Bahasa Phinbella, Jawi: بهاس ڤينبيللا) or Phinbellan Malay (Phineaner: bahasa Melayu Phinbella), is the name regularly applied to the Malay language used in Phinbella (as opposed to the lect used in Indokistan, which is referred to as the Indokistani language). Constitutionally, however, the official language of Phinbella is Malay, but the government from time to time refers to it as Phinbellan. Standard Phinbellan is a standard form of the Johore-Riau dialect of Malay. It is spoken by much of the Phinbellan population, although most learn a vernacular form of Malay or other native language first.
