More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Focusing primarily on Standard Maltese, the authors clarify many areas which, until now, remain undefined, with emphasis on syntax and intonation. English loanwords continue to find their way into Standard Maltese, especially as the Maltese inhabitants become increasingly bilingual, and the variations are studied, as well as their morphological behavior. The book describes the syntactic, morphological and phonological structure of Maltese as one integrated linguistic system composed of different strands (Arabic, Romance and English).

This book is more for linguists and those who have some experience with English Language as a subject. It goes in to great detail to give you tone inclination and direct to English translations (i.e. Eyelash is translated literally as 'hair of the eye'). This is a terrific book but I would not recommend it to anyone who did not have any linguistical knowledge of English to start with. If your prepared to do the back reading on linguistic use then this book is great. It certainly is not the 'Teach Yourself...' breed of fast language learning.
