Malay is one of the major languages in the world, but there has
been relatively little detailed research on its phonetics. This
Element provides an overview of existing descriptions of the
pronunciation of Standard Malay before briefly considering the
pronunciation of some dialects of Malay. It then introduces
materials that may be used for studying the phonetics of Malay: a
short text, the NWS passage; and a map-task, to generate
conversational data. Based on recordings using these materials by
two female and two male consultants who are academics at Universiti
Brunei Darussalam, the Element next offers an acoustic analysis of
the consonants and vowels of Malay, the syllable structure arising
from fast speech processes, as well as the rhythm and intonation of
the Standard Malay that is spoken in Brunei. Finally, it suggests
directions for further research on the phonetics of Malay.
