I remember playing Trivial Pursuit and got the question "What
language do they speak on Vanuatu?" I didn't know for sure, but
took a guess at Bislama. However, that wasn't the correct answer.
The correct answer was apparently "Vanuatian". Whatever that is.
SIL lists 109 languages for Vanuatu, and "Vanuatian" is not one
of them.
They could spice up the question a bit by asking "What
language_s_ do they speak on Vanuatu?".
:-P
