However, in recent years, some internet users have, through [[w:Hypercorrection|hypercorrection]], started orthographically distinguishing the two meanings by capitalising ''bemeh'' "Bemé" as ''Bemeh'' or in some cases ''BEMEH'', as is common in many indigenous languages of the Poccasins.

Although originally referring to the entire language in the same manner as ''Bemé''/''Bemeh'', nowadays it is mostly used to refer to [[w:Basilect|basilectal]] varieties of the language, though older speakers may still refer to the language as ''kriyal''.
