Malay is an official language in several different states – including the burgeoning economies of Malaysia and Indonesia. This means that communicating in Malay opens up several new and exciting markets for your company. But Malaysian, Indonesian, and many other dialects of Malay are distinct languages, with different vocabularies, orthographies, and pronunciations…

Asian Absolute’s professional Malay translation and interpreting services let you and your UK company do business like a native speaker anywhere Malay is used. With our help, you’ll naturally work with local cultural preferences and ways of doing business in mind. Make sure that, whether you’re meeting local partners for the first time or designing the most convincing Malay marketing materials, you’re doing so from a position of confidence and authority.

And with Indonesia being the fourth most populous nation in the world, Malaysia is the third largest economy in South-East Asia – not to mention the huge number of other speakers of various Malay dialects up and down the Malacca Straits – that are some important markets you could be trading in.

Our native-speaking language specialists ensure that you always take into account cultural norms and styles. You’ll be communicating, converting, and negotiating as easily as you do in your own mother tongue.

This means that our native Malay speakers will ensure that the style, accuracy, and fluency of your text are preserved when translating into that language. Meanwhile, your project requiring Malay to English translation will always be worked upon by English native-speaking linguists.

Client testimonials

The word for “language” in Malay is “Bahasa“. Thus:

1. Malaysian– is properly called Bahasa Malaysia, “Malaysian language”
2. Indonesian – is properly called Bahasa Indonesia, “Indonesian language”

At Asian Absolute, we often find that we’re asked for  “Bahasa” translation services. Generally, in these cases, we find that it is Indonesian or Malaysian language capability that our clients are looking for. But we’ll always be happy to advise you about which dialect of Malay will be most suitable when you tell us which market or area you are targeting.

In addition to the Malay translation services we deliver to our London and global clients, we also provide both consecutive and simultaneous interpreters who are native speakers of all standardised registers of Malay. This includes many of the dialects spoken in:

• Malaysia
• Indonesia
• Brunei
• Singapore (Malay is one of four official languages here)
• Sumatra
• Thailand
• The Christmas Islands
• In certain parts of the Philippines, where Malay is a trade language
