Where can you find texts translated from Maltese to English? Yes, finding decently translated articles or websites is hard. Let’s make it simpler for you by listing these good sources:
TVM
My favorite Maltese news website! All the content is translated into English, just click the logo above the articles to switch languages.
The people of Malta
Wonderful Facebook page. You will regularly find new stories about people living in Malta. Posts are first in Maltese and the English translation is below.
Malta’s government
All the websites of the Maltese government are in both Maltese and English. Switch to Maltese in the bar above. The ‘about Malta’ pages are interesting, not only because they’re in both languages. You’ll find cultural information too.
Wikipedia
Wikipedia is the internet’s free encyclopedia and is translated in many languages, including Maltese. This link will lead you every time you click it to another random page in Maltese. Click on the left below for the translations to English. The translations aren’t done word for word but you’ll understand the meaning.
The Bible
Malta is a Catholic country. It is said there’s a church for every day of the year (365!). So if you enjoy reading the bible, you can read it online on the website of Jehovah’s witnesses (note: I do not support their beliefs or actions, except putting the entire Bible online). It is very useful as the pages and sentences are numbered, so you can check in the English version what it means.
The European Union
Maltese is one of the official languages of the European Union. So many texts are translated into Malta’s language. Even their surveys are translated into Maltese! The section ‘dwar l-UE’ (about the EU) is interesting to read. The Commission’s representation also has some Maltese videos with English subtitles.
