This publication presents the results of a study of similarity between texts written in Romanian and Spanish, using a matrix analysis method based on Levenshtein's edit distance. The method used in the study does not contain implemented language-dependent vocabulary rules and exhibits the feature of linguistic universality in terms of similarity analysis. The study was carried out on the basis of the commercial computer program Antyplagius, created by the New Data Mining Systems company, which performs similarity analysis exclusively using the aforementioned method. The texts being compared were taken from excerpts from Wikipedia translated by online translators of popular companies which are based on artificial intelligence solutions.
