How to use the indefinite article in Maltese

Step 3 : The indefinite article in Maltese

The indefinite article is what we call the word a in English. The indefinite article is used with nouns in English (a book, a chair, a door etc.). To get started in Maltese, pick just 3 important nouns. We suggest you learn the nouns ktieb, siġġu and bieb (book, chair, door). Once you have learned these nouns, you can then learn how to use each noun with the indefinite article. This is easy in Maltese, because in Maltese, there is no indefinite article. So the word ktieb can mean book or a book, the word siġġu can mean chair or a chair and the word bieb can mean door or a door.
