The objective of the present paper is to compare and contrast French and Bahasa Malaysia, two languages from different language families, with translation in mind.

The analysis is intended to identify aspects which may be potentially difficult to translate owing to the difference between the two languages. Following the identification of such aspects, the paper discusses them further in relation to other similar examples. The presence of cultural elements or influence in the linguistic aspects of these languages and their translatability are also highlighted.
