Differences between Malay and English

When you are using an online translator, you should only use it for written words. Malay is has a different pronunciation structure than English, as the stress is located in different areas of words. The grammar and structure is not significantly different, but the difference in the regional accents, combined with the inaccuracies inherent to computer-based translations can make it difficult to understand someone who is reading from a computer translation. You can use a Malay dictionary or an online dictionary which has an audio section to learn how to pronounce the words, and this will help you to communicate. Google has an audio section, so that you can hear a computer's approach to Malay. However, if you have used a Sat Nav device for GPS directions, then you know that the computer voices err on where to put the stress on different syllables. To use the Google audio, click on the audio icon. Google also has a visual guide for word pronunciations.
