Some Malay words originated from Portuguese. Portuguese took control of the trading port of Malacca in 1511, many words entered the Malay, e.g leilão (lelong), sekolah (escola), almari (armário), baldi (balde), bangku (banco), beranda (varanda), bendera (bandeira), kebaya (cabaia), jendela (janela), sepatu (sapato), nanas (ananas), tangki (tanque), tuala (toalha), tambur (tambor), minggu (domingo), meja (mesa), mentega (manteiga), kereta (carreta), pesta (festa), pita (fita), tukar (trocar) and there are alot more.

Malay language have a lot of English vocabularies and Indonesia language have a lot of Dutch but come from same root. So, it simple to learn but there are also have their own words in terms of Malay traditional vocabularies. For example,
1. Class - Kelas, also we say "golongan" or "pelajaran", "pengajian", or "bilik darjah"..
2. Cake - Kek, or "kuih".
3. Sex - Seks, or "jantina" or "jenis kelamin"
4. Relax - Relaks (slang); or "Tenang" or "Santai".

I'm Australian but studied Bahasa Indonesia in university and later spent time in Malaysia where I became familiar with Malaysian Malay. On one occasion I was asked to give a talk to a group consisting of English speakers and Malay speakers. For simplicity I did my own English translation. After the talk I asked my Malaysian friends, "In the Malay talk did you hear me use any English word?" They said "No." I asked, "If I can do that why can't you?"

[SoullessliiMai]

As a Malaysian who speak both English and Malay, I can confirm that both languages are in common only because the latter has a lot of loanwords (kata pinjaman) we borrowed from English.

ball = bola
pen = pen
police = polis
ambulance = ambulan
discrimination = diskriminasi

[MuhammadHanif-yrjv]

Malay language for me is the simplest one to study since that it does not have masculine or feminine like the other language do have.

[mu_]

That's the reason why both Malay and Indonesia is very easy to learn, most of words are "borrowed" and synchronized so people can communicate with foreigner/merchants even they can't speak out language properly

(Sorry for my bad grammar)

[mirza]

Most Malaysians don't usually say 'relak' but we usually say 'sabar'
