English to Swedish: Madagascar General field: Science Detailed field: Other
Source text - English Madagascar is an island located off the eastern coast of southern Africa in the Indian Ocean. As the world's fourth largest island, Madagascar is a little larger than France but slightly smaller than Texas.
Madagascar has been isolated from Africa for over 150 million years. For this reason, most of the plants and animals found on the island exist nowhere else on Earth.
Because of its remoteness, Madagascar was not settled by humans until around 2.000 years ago. The Malagasy -- the name for the people of the island -- are descended from Indonesians who made their way across the Indian Ocean. Arabs and Africans arrived later and made important contributions to the unique cultural practices found on the island.
Translation - Swedish Madagaskar är en ö som ligger utanför södra Afrikas östkust i Indiska oceanen.
Som världens fjärde största ö så är Madagaskar något större än Frankrike, men något mindre än Texas.
Madagaskar har varit isolerad från Afrika i över 150 miljoner år. På grund av detta så finns de flesta av växterna och djuren på ön inte någon annanstans på jorden.
På grund av dess avlägsenhet så blev inte Madagaskar bosatt av människor förrän för ungefär 2 000 år sedan. Madagaskerna - namnet på folkslaget på ön - härstammar från indonesier som tog sig över Indiska Oceanen. Araber och afrikaner anlände senare och gjorde viktiga bidrag till de unika seder och bruk som finns på ön.
