Singaporean Hokkien (Chinese: 新加坡福建话; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Sin-ka-pho Hok-kiàn-ōe;Tâi-lô:Sin-ka-pho Hok-kiàn-uē) is a local variant of the Hokkien dialect spoken in Singapore. In Chinese academic circles this dialect is known as Singaporean Banlamgu 新加坡闽南語(Sin-ka-pho bân-lâm-gu). It is closely related to the Southern Malaysian Hokkien (南马福建话) spoken in Southern Malaysia as well as Riau Hokkien (廖内福建话) spoken in the Indonesian province of Riau.
