- Formal Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia baku)
- Government, news and academic speech. Best-supported.
- Jakarta colloquial
- Informal forms like "gue", "lo" and "nggak" are transcribed as spoken.
- Regional accents
- Javanese- and Sundanese-accented Indonesian is fine. Passages in Javanese or Sundanese themselves will need review.
Choosing Indonesian as the audio language
Indonesian and Malay are close relatives, so pick Indonesian explicitly for Indonesian audio. Otherwise a short clip can come back with Malay spellings, and for Malaysian speakers you should pick Malay.
Reviewing a Indonesian transcript
Check reduplicated words ("anak-anak") and affixed forms of names and brands.
