Maltese

Know about the book -

Maltese is written by Marie Azzopardi-Alexander and published by Routledge. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1136855289 (ISBN 10) and 9781136855283 (ISBN 13).

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).
