How Maltese and English compare

Shared writing system

Maltese and English are both written in Latin, so the translated output uses characters you already recognise. You can usually read the result aloud without transliteration, though spelling conventions and accented characters still differ.

Unrelated language families

Maltese belongs to the Afro-Asiatic family while English belongs to the Indo-European family. With no shared ancestry there are few cognates to fall back on, so idioms and fixed expressions rarely map word-for-word. Short, literal sentences translate more accurately than figurative ones.

Sentence structure changes

Maltese follows verb-subject-object (VSO) order while English follows subject-verb-object (SVO). The translator has to rebuild each sentence rather than substitute words in place, so the output will not line up word-for-word with your input. Splitting long sentences improves accuracy.

Speakers

Maltese: Approximately 520,000 speakers worldwide, with about 450,000 in Malta. English: Approximately 1.5 billion people speak English to varying degrees of proficiency, with around 360 million native speakers.
