(It's really hard to find sample sentences! Where are all Maltese blogs and forums? Where are all the normal Maltese people having discussions about normal, ordinary things on-line? All I can find is news, politics and law. :-( )
P.S. There's this list of 1000 most common Maltese words... there are some problems there, so I don't know how correct it is. But, it exists, and all information on it isn't bad.
These words are given in English, not in Maltese, which makes me think they have just taken a list and translated it on Babelfish or something.
2 - I - I is not I in Maltese, but jien/jiena
33 - a - doesn't exist
37 - out - barra
41 - do - għamel
50 - tell - qal
