Pontianak Malay (Bahase Melayu Pontianak, Indonesian: Bahasa Pontianak, Jawi script: بهاس ملايو ڤونتيانق) is a Malayan language spoken in Pontianak, Indonesia and the surrounding area.
It is one of the two major varieties of Malayic languages spoken in West Kalimantan,[1] the other being Sambas Malay. Pontianak Malay is a close relative of Sambas as well as Sarawak Malay in neighbouring Sarawak, Malaysia. Elements from Johor-Riau Malay, Chinese, Banjarese, Indonesian, various Dayak languages as well as many localism can be seen in the language, reflecting the various ethnic origins residing in the city.
Although Pontianak is relatively homogeneous, some regional sub-dialects are notable. The Malay varieties spoken in Pontianak, Kubu Raya, Ketapang and Mempawah differ slightly from each other. Differences exist both in terms of vocabulary and phonology.
