Santo: Bay...
"Espiritu Santo, the largest island of the New Hebrides, has
numerous and greatly varying dialects.   Considered to be of non-
Melanesian origin, they have assimilated Melanesian features in a
rather irregular form.   The Santo Bay, or Northeastern, dialect
is spoken around St. Philip Bay and St. James Bay in the north
of the island."
