Thai uses Thai while Malay 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.
Thai belongs to the Kra-Dai family while Malay 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.
Both languages follow subject-verb-object (SVO) order, so clauses usually keep their shape during translation. Words tend to land in a similar position, which makes it easier to check a translation against the original even without fluency.
Thai: Approximately 65 million speakers, making it the official language of Thailand and one of the most widely spoken languages in Southeast Asia. Malay: Approximately 290 million speakers, including those who speak Indonesian as a standardized form of Malay, making it one of the most spoken languages in the world.
