There are different dialects in Rohingya language spoken by Rohingyas in different townships Arakan state (Rakhine) Burma, such like, Mongdú (Maungdaw), Búsidóng (Buthidaung), Akyab (Sittway), Mámbra (Mínbya), Kiokto (Kyauktaw), Kiokpuru (Kyaukpyu), Rasídaung (Rathidaung), Kioknima (Kyauknimaw), Pattárhilla (Mrauk U). As well they are also different from each other in culture, faces, skin colours, and faith such like; hindu, baurgwa, doom, wahabi, sunni, Eesai, anikka, bañal, ruángngia, kaunsi musálman.

Some racist Buddhists of Burma say, Rohingya are illegal Bengalis immigrated from Bangladesh in our country, Rohingya are not people of Rohang (Arakan). They speak Bengali language, dress like Bengalis and eat Bengali foods. They are not citizens of Burma and we never heard the word Rohingya.

Please if you don’t know about Rohingya, study the history of Rohingya. Without knowing them, do not spread racism and hate speeches against human beings.

This article is going to show you that Rohingya people do not speak Bengali, neither Burmese. Rohingya Belong to Rohang (Arakan) and Then Burma.

As above said that Rohingyas speak different dialects, this is one dialect from among them, spoken in Pattárhilla, Kiokto, Mámbra, Kiokpuru and more.
