@@TheUltraGuy101 hmm that's a big overstatement. Accents can be hidden depending on the ability of the person. It's not exclusively race this race that. Maybe our language/upbringing helps pronunciation in certain languages, additional points if you were exposed to another language early. But the best? Such statement can't be applied to a whole community if not everyone finds it easy. In the end, it depends on how often a person uses it, how exposed their upbringing was, how much practice and for some it's easier to pick up with talent.

iro-iro. A repetivie Japanese word in Japan that I often heard during my 1-year stay in Japan, I am Malaysian, ethnically Malay. Also I find a similarity between my language (Malay) and Japanese is that a question end up with 'ka/kah' in both languages. Malay: Siapa kah orang itu? (Who is that person?) Japanese: Kore wa nan desu ka? (What is this?) The 'kah' in Malay signifies a question just like 'ka' in Japanese

[@wakakabravo7998]

There are other few similarity between Malay and Japanese language that I noticed. One of it is that every time Malay people asking question they will end the question with suffix "kah" while Japanese will end it with "Ka". Like example English: what ? Who ? Where ?, Malay : apa kah ? Siapa kah ? Di mana kah ? , Japanese: Nani ka ? Doko Ka ? Dare Ka ?. Another thing is Japanese always say "ano/ anone" when they not sure in what they want to said, surprisingly Malay also have the similar word which is "Anu" and it used for the same way. In Filipino/ Tagalog "ano" mean what. Other similar word is ikku in JP and ikut in MY which mean to come or to follow , word suruh in MY and suru in JP mean to do something, the word suka in MY and suki in JP mean to like, the word ayah in MY and oya in JP mean father, oppah in MY and obaa San in JP mean grandmother, atuk in MY and Otou San in JP mean grandfather, in JP ore while in MY orang used as impersonal pronounce. There are many other I don't list it here. My theory is that Japanese and Malay language may have been related through Austronesian language. The jomon people was probably the Austronesian speaking people but their slowly assimilate with yayoi people from mainland China and lost their Austronesian heritage.

[@Rinyien988]

Cawan and Alamak, in my point of view, both words might have some interesting historical influences, which could be dated several centuries back. From the historical perspective, Malacca Sultanate Kingdom used to be the world's busiest entreport around 1400 years ago, attracting people all over the world to stop by for trade business and political connections. Malay language used to be the Lingua Franca. Which means, those people in the past who didnt know how to converse in Malay, or did not know anything about Malay language, they were considered as the "losers", as they were lacking the communication tools to follow the normal. Plus, due to the fact that Malacca Sultanate Kingdom and Ryukyu Kingdom had very close bilateral relationship in the past(we learned this in our history subject in middle school syllabus), cultural exchange and lingustical influence might occur within the process. Besides Ryukyu, Malacca Sultanate Kingdom used to have close relationship with traders from the Middle Ease ie Arab, Persians and as a result, many malay words are influenced by Arabic language also. I guess history connects us all at some point.

茶碗 is Chinese word, as both Tea and Porcelain were exported by China to surrounding regions. Even Japanese still using Kanji for Cawan. As Chinese changed to use small cup for tea, nowadays Chinese only call it 茶杯 instead of 茶碗. BTW, Malay use "Kah" in "Betulkah?" and Japanese "desuka?" also very similar.

It's true that Malay is easy for Japanese to pronounce. I think one of the biggest reason is because Malay, like Japanese, is a phonetic language. What it means is, how it is written is how it's pronounced. English is not like that. Two words spelled similarly may have completely different sounds or words spelled differently can have the same sounds. That makes English much harder to learn than Malay.

It is easy to understand why Japanese and Malay sound familiar One stream of Japanese language come from Ryu Kyu kingdom which basically are Malay and Polynesian language characteristic by plenty of vowel instead of consonant all those A, E,O ,U, I If you listen to Hawaian languages they are also the same. It make it sound brighter And you right the rule is consonant follow by vowel and has the same pronounciation like it is written unlike English Another thing is the length of the word Malaysian, Indo words are long and built up word like suffix, presuffix, and ending with root word Satu meaning one or single , become Per-satu-an(Association), mempersatu( united), Disatukan(becoming one) etc Repetion is common in all Asian language including Chinese it meant to emphasiza and a plural form since Malay and Indonesian languages does not have plural form in noun as in Indo European languages

[@FizxYT]

As a malaysian, i love japanese pronounciation. It sounds so catchy (almost pun-like) and shows the character of the speaker. Also the kanji is unique where certain letter derives from different word yet they compliment each other. Case on point for 'gintama' where you can write a story from a word. Favourite word - もし もし and the kitsune story.

I used to live in Japan for a year. I find Japanese language too interesting. I find there are also repetitive words in Japanese such as 'iro-iro',. I like Japanese grammar. Example: 'tabemasu' is root word for 'eat' ('makan' in Malay). This root word can change form, like 'Tabemashita' (ate, telah makan), tabete imasu (am eating, sedang makan), tabetai (want to eat, nak makan), tabetara (if I eat, kalau saya makan), tabemasen (do not eat, tak makan), mada tabemasen (have not eaten yet, belum makan), mo tabesmashita (already eaten, sudah makan), tabete kudasai (please eat, sila makan), tabetekunaide kudasai (don't eat please, sila jangan makan), tabetekunai (cannot eat, tak boleh dimakan) etc. Also I like how Japanese language creates sentences, always the object comse first, so it'd mean literally 'Saya perut sakit'/'I stomach hurt' when they want to say 'Perut saya sakit/My stomach hurts', so they say 'Watashi wa onaka ga ittai desu'..my Japanese isn't good at all, I've forgotten most of it since I do not need it in Malaysia..
