Myanmar Burmese uses Burmese while Lao uses Khmer. 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.
Myanmar Burmese belongs to the Sino-Tibetan family while Lao belongs to the Tai-Kadai 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.
Myanmar Burmese follows subject-object-verb (SOV) order while Lao 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.
Myanmar Burmese: Approximately 32 million speakers, making it the official language of Myanmar (Burma). Lao: Approximately 3 million speakers in Laos, 15+ million speakers of closely related Isan variety in Thailand.
