Usage notes

[edit]

As with other terms for people formed with-ese, the countable singular noun in reference to a person (as in "I am a Maltese", "writing about Maltese cuisine as a Maltese") is uncommon and often taken as incorrect. In its place, the adjective is used, by itself (as in "I am Maltese") or before a noun likeperson,man, orwoman ("writing about Maltese cuisine as a Maltese person"). See also-ish, which is similarly only used primarily as an adjective or as a plural noun.
