1.0 out of 5 stars A language enthuiast from Texas 5 Aug 1999
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
I have many of the Teach Yourself series of books. Most of these are very helpful and give good non-technical explantions. This book is very technical in its explantions and is of no help to the language student trying to learn on his own.

1.0 out of 5 stars It's more a grammar than a language course 20 May 1999
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
If your intention is to learn to speak Maltese, just don't buy this book since it won't be helpful at all. It is more a grammar than a language course and it would be ideal for those who have already learnt the basics of Maltese and wish to have a grammatical reference whenever they hesitate about the language rules. Very few exercises and quizes, and not useful at all in which concerns to learning Maltese, no dialogues in the whole book, and very "hard" explanations about the language. I gave it one star because of its cover, which is the only nice thing in the book. If you're looking for a good language course in order to learn Maltese, my recommendation is to buy "Beginning Maltese", by Lydia Sciriha (University Of Malta).

1.0 out of 5 stars not very good. 23 Oct 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
My wife and sister-in-law have used this book and they found it very hard. I have seen it too and I don't think it is a very good course to learn maltese. If you really want a bilingual ie Maltese language course, you should consider Merhba 2- Maltese Language Conversation Course. Course consists of audio tapes and reader.

1.0 out of 5 stars Maltese : A Complete Course for Beginners (Teach Yourself) 13 Aug 2000
By "broostah" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Mr Aquilina's book was the first modern "learn Maltese" title readily available outside Europe. However, it is one of the very few in the Teach Yourself series which the publisher has yet to "modernise", i.e. bringing it up-to-date (even re-authoring it) and adding tapes with native speakers. It is only relatively recently that Teach Yourself have begun to add culture notes, pitching themselves more at the middle-of-the-road learner who is keen on travel, rather than the academic. A plea therefore to the publisher: please update this one so that more can learn and travel to this wonderful country!
