Maltese

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

ContinuesArabicه(h). In pre-modern Maltese,h still produces the sound[h] as recorded byAgius de Soldanis (1750) andMikel Anton Vassalli (1796). The early contemporary variant was first found in the dialect oflsien tal-bliet (“tongues of the cities”, referring to the cities around theGrand Harbour according to Vassalli) which eventually superseded the increasingly archaic[h] sound in the neighboring areas.

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • (phoneme)IPA(key): /-/,/ː/,/j/,/w/,/ħ/
  • (phoneme)IPA(key): /h/,/ħ/(archaic)

Letter

[edit]

h (upper caseH)

  1. The tenthletter of the Maltesealphabet, written in theLatin script.

Usage notes

[edit]
  • In contemporary Maltese,h remains a true consonant[ħ] in the following cases:
    • in word-final position or when being the last radical of a verb:ikrah[ˈɪkraħ],jixbhu[ˈjɪʃpħʊ];
    • before the negative ending-x:jarawhx[jaˈrawħʃ];
    • in the clusters-għh-, -ħh-,-hh-, which all become[ħħ].
  • Otherwise it is silent or leaves only a vocalic trace:
    • Following and precedinga, e, o are lengthened if stressed:hedded[ˈɛːddɛt],fehmet[ˈfɛːmɛt]. Other vowels are not affected.
    • In intervocalic position it is a glide,[j] afteri, ie, and[w] afteru:jibniha[jɪbˈnɪːja],inħobbuhom[ɪnħɔbˈbuːwɔm].
    • The sequence-aho- becomes[ɔː]:rahom[rɔːm]. The sequence-ehi- becomes[ɛj] or[ɛˈjiː]:ftehim[ftɛjm],[ftɛˈjiːm].
  • On the other hand in pre-modern Maltese dialects that preserved the guttaral sounds,h remained as a true consonant with the aspirated and soft sound of[h] in all positions except:
    • If word finalh is an affixed pronoun:ħalluh[χal.lʊːħ],ħallih[χal.lɪːħ],fih[fɪːħ].
  • Phonotactically, word-initialh now generally behaves like a vowel, allowing contractions such asm’hemmx[mɛːmʃ]. However, word-internalh still behaves like a (virtual) consonant. Compare for exampleqablu[ˈʔablʊ] withqabilha[ʔaˈbɪla], which latter is formed as though thel were followed by a consonant.

  • The abbreviation can be followed by a number between 00 and 59 to indicate the minutes of an hour (as in French). This can be optionally represented by another abbreviation:min.
    • Example:15h30 or15h30min, the first being much more common
  • min can be further followed by another abbreviation,s, to represent seconds.
    • Example:20h43min08s

      Usage notes
      [edit]

      In Metelko alphabet, the phoneme was written by two different letters whether it was pronounced as velar/x/ or glottal/h/, a distinction irrelevant to nowadays standard and the distinction was also not used by all writers. Phoneme/h/ was written with 〈h〉, while/x/ was written with a yet to be encoded character.

            Usage notes
            [edit]

            Prepositionh is a form of prepositionk that appears before words that start with/k/ or/ɡ/ while other form is used for all other words. In "correct" pronunciation, the preposition does not form its own syllable, but binds to the first syllable of the next word and has therefore two pronunciations:[x] if word starts with[k] and[ɣ] if word starts with[ɡ]. In colloquial speech, this form (or at least its pronunciation) are also used with words starting with other letters.
