GUEST	Meaning of 'daighsoe'?? (47)	RE: Meaning of 'daighsoe'??	16 Aug 14
As far as we can tell, the Maltese language is the one survivor of Phoenician to have made it. There's bits in Madeiran, Catalan and Basque too. When Malta entered the EU, they were asked to supply 74 translaters and interpreters between Maltese and English, qualified to Doctoral level. In fact, there were just 4, and they all worked in the Maltese Parliament, who were not best pleased at the thought of the only experts in the language all clearing off to Brussels. So they had a recce round and discovered there were barely that number of bilingual tour guides. Guess who got the job?
