Malayalam uses Malayalam while Indonesian uses Latin. Because the two do not share an alphabet, translated output cannot be sounded out from the original spelling — copy the result directly rather than trying to transcribe it.
Malayalam belongs to the Dravidian family while Indonesian belongs to the Austronesian family. With no shared ancestry there are few cognates to fall back on, so idioms and fixed expressions rarely map word-for-word. Short, literal sentences translate more accurately than figurative ones.
Malayalam follows subject-object-verb (SOV) order while Indonesian follows subject-verb-object (SVO). The translator has to rebuild each sentence rather than substitute words in place, so the output will not line up word-for-word with your input. Splitting long sentences improves accuracy.
Malayalam: Approximately 40 million speakers, making it the eighth most spoken language in India. Indonesian: Approximately 43 million native speakers, but over 200 million speakers as second language throughout Indonesia.
