The tenthletter of the Maltesealphabet , written in theLatin script . 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] . Phonotactically, word-initialh now generally behaves like a vowel, allowing contractions such asm’ hemm x [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.

( with dative, see usage notes ) to ,for 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.
