General Language Information:

Kriol is a language spoken across the north of Australia, from WA into the Northern Territory and part of Queensland. The Kriol spoken across the north of Australia varies from east to west, and there are several dialects, even within the Kimberley region.   Kimberley Kriol speakers feel their own way of speaking and writing is different to that of the East.
