The national language of the Island of Malta, in the Mediterranean
Sea is spoken by almost 400,000 people. This text focuses on
Standard Maltese and serves to clarify many areas which remain
undefined, specifically in the areas of syntax and intonation.
English loanwords continue to find their way into Standard Maltese,
especially as Maltese inhabitants become increasingly bilingual,
and their variations are studied, as well as their morphological
behaviour. Complying with the Descriptive Grammars series profile,
Albert Borg presents a linguistical analysis of Maltese which is
intended to be of significance to linguists, for the purposes of
both cross-language comparisons and the study of specific
linguistic, such as language universals, language typology,
comparative syntax, morphology and phonology.

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).
