Google Now Supports Balinese Language

Trenologi reports today that Google Indonesia has an additional localized language for Indonesian users: the Balinese language. It’s being made available in the hope of helping preserve the local language and the island’s heritage – it’ll also help Balinese users find what they’re searching for.

This latest language support is done thanks to the help and support of 45 students and language experts from Udayana University, Dwijendra Foundation, and BASAbali.org. Besides the Indonesian and Balinese languages, Google Indonesia also supports Javanese.
