If there were two groups of Lojbanists and one used "fi'u" as the rafsi of "frinu" while the other used it as the rafsi for "cfipu", or one used "malpigi" to mean a fruit while the other knew it only as a word for an insect's kidney, or one always used "cu" between "mi" and the selbri and the other didn't, then you'd have dialects.
