How these two languages compare, and what it means for your translations.
Makassar and Sundanese are both written in the Latin script, so the translated output will use characters you already recognise. You can usually read the result aloud without transliteration, though spelling conventions and accented characters still differ between the two languages.
Both Makassar and Sundanese belong to the Austronesian language family. Related languages tend to share vocabulary roots and comparable sentence structure, which generally makes machine translation between them more reliable — though false friends, words that look alike but mean different things, are also more common between relatives.
Both languages follow subject-verb-object (SVO) order, so clauses usually keep their shape during translation. Words tend to land in a similar position in the sentence, which makes it easier to check a translation against the original even without fluency.
