'''Nayohbuk'''(Nawuhu: ''na’a yohbukai'', lit. "thief talk") is the Nawuhu slang used(or at least known) by most young people in Wuhu Town.
'''Natawak'''(Nawuhu: ''na’a ta’ak''/''na’a tawak'') is an [[w:English-based creole language|English-based creole language]] spoken in Wuhu Town by the Berakai, the impoverished descendants of indigenous Wuhu peoples who in the modern day inhabit the outer cities of Wuhu Town(called the ''Banyay'' in Tawak, from French ''[[w:Banlieue|banlieue]]'').
 
It is significantly more influenced by English than standard Nawuhu, with many Japanese loanwords in standard Nawuhu being replaced by English equivalents in Nayohbuk, such as Nawuhu ''he'en'' "bizarre" replaced with Nayohbuk ''wé'ed'', from English "weird".
 
Nayohbuk speakers also tend to pronounce /l/ as [ɾ], and addressing one another as ''púno''(a shortened form of ''puhúno'') is more common than in standard Nawuhu.
