Addu Dialect(Addu Bas)


Addu Bas is the dialect spoken in the southern region of the archipelago, an area quite diversified from the rest.  It’s fairly similar to the Mulaku dialect and it can be distinguished by the use of the final -o where Male’ Dhivehi would use - u instead. Oddly enough, people from Addu think that their own dialect and the Male’ one are not that different after all and can easily understand the variations.
