     Malay is the lingua franca of several Southeast Asia countries and has been simplified by its use as a second language by non-native speakers.
     For example, the Malay plural is formed by repeating a word twice – buku means book and buku-buku means books.

     馬來語是東南亞幾個國家的通用語，並且由於非母語人士將其作為第二語言使用，其語言結構已有所簡化。
     例如，馬來語的複數形式是通過重複一個詞兩次構成的——buku 的意思是書，buku-buku 的意思是書。
