Translation into Maltese: Why?
Firstly, translations into Maltese will be needed because all EU laws and official documents will need to be translated
into Maltese.
The European Union will take in ten new countries in May 2004. After the
enlagement, the EU will have about 20 official languages, including Maltese.

Maltese translators are rare. The Times of Malta wrote: "EU use of
Maltese language at risk for lack of translators". And yes, Maltese

TRADUguide has also met this challenge and enlarged its language
portfolio by 60 languages, including the new official EU language Maltese.
