Re: angħarad

But what would that mean?

No idea. I don't even know whether there is a base għ-r-d in Maltese, and I don't have a dictionary here. Just saying that morphologically and phonotactically, it could be a Maltese word. (Just like 'splurgs' could be an English verb in the third person singular, present indicative, due to the phonotactics and the -s ending, even though there's no such word.)

(Do you know that 'angharad' is of Welsh origin?)

No, I didn't; what does it mean?

Apparently it means "much loved" or "more love" or similar.
Of course, I stole it out of a fantasy novel before I ever knew it was Welsh.

as far as i know, that verb doesn't exist in Maltese - unless it's an extremely old one that isn't really in use any longer.

Just saying that morphologically and phonotactically, it could be a Maltese word. - that's correct tho!
