"Bilaik" definitely sounds a bit like "be like," but it has a far more nuanced meaning. It is sort of used for words like "that," "they," "who," and "which," but only when the those words are used to compare things which are related. So bilaik is used in the following sentance: Ai don sen in chit bilaik ai gaf sen in.

"I’ve heard what I needed to hear." (or more literally "I have heard what that I needed to hear.")

A lot of the time you don't need to use bilaik though. So you can say Gona ai don fis op ste klir ("The warrior I cured is safe") instead of something that translates to "The warrior that I cured is safe." Basically, I'm not sure anyone but David Peterson fully understands how to use bilaik.
