However, these fall into four groups with 75% mutual intelligibility or greater.

These have relatively low mutual intelligibility, but are close enough to be considered a single language.

However, all have a high degree of mutual intelligibility, and so by that standard are a single language.

They are closely related, though perhaps not close enough for mutual intelligibility.

With this, the higher the linguistic distance, the lower is the level of mutual intelligibility.

There is a degree of mutual intelligibility between the two languages, particularly in written form.

It has a degree of mutual intelligibility with the Malay language.

This is because there is a high degree of mutual intelligibility.
