dc.description.abstractMALTESE belongs to the Semitic language family. Other languages such as English and German belong to the Germanic group, while Latin, French, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish are members of the Romance language family. As members of their families, languages display similarities with other languages in their own language group. Thus, as a member of the Semitic language family, Maltese displays greater similarities with languages in the same group, such as Arabic, rather than with Germanic and Romance languages. But unlike Arabic, Maltese is written in Roman script.en_GB
