Maltese and English in the same breath
Most people in Malta switch between Maltese and English mid-sentence. Type the English words in English and the narrator says meeting, boss, and late as English, with għandna and imma in Maltese.
A meeting at għaxra, and the boss might be late
Style: Speak in Maltese with easy office chatter, switching to English words naturally
Għandna meeting fl-10, imma l-boss qal li jista' jkun late.
Għandna, għaxra, boss, late

Ewro, ta' Marzu, and u nofs
Maltese puts units before tens and joins them with u, adds -il before nouns from 11 to 19, and gives dates with ta'. These rows show the spoken forms.
| You write | The narrator says | Type |
|---|---|---|
| €25 | ħamsa u għoxrin ewro | Units first, then tens, joined by u |
| €15 | ħmistax-il ewro | The -il form before a noun for 11 to 19 |
| 15 ta' Marzu | il-ħmistax ta' Marzu | Date with ta', meaning of |
| 3:30 | it-tlieta u nofs | Three and a half |
Il-vapur, the rain, a radio sale, and Maltese food talk
Under each clip is the Maltese script and the brief given to the narrator. Listen for Għawdex in the ferry notice and the ċ in speċjalment in the forecast.

What councils, schools, and ad makers in Malta use
Most Maltese projects, from a ferry notice to a radio spot, start in one of these three places.
Studio for notices and bilingual scripts
Give each notice, lesson step, or ad line its own block, narrator, and brief, mixing Maltese and English blocks in one project. Drag to reorder and regenerate only the block you changed.

Malta’s presenters switch languages, and so can their clone: record a short sample of your own voice, or one you are permitted to use, then assign it to Maltese and English blocks.

Dotted letters, silent għ, and the -il before ewro
Maltese spelling is regular once you know a few rules, but several letters are said very differently from how an English reader would guess. These five decide whether a script sounds Maltese.
Ċ, ġ, ż: the dots change the sound
ċikkulata, Ġunju
Ċ is the ch in "church", ġ the j in "jam", and ż a plain z. Text typed on a keyboard without them loses the dots, and c or g without a dot is read differently. Keep the dotted letters in the script.
Ħ comes from the throat
ħajja
Ħ is a strong h made deep in the throat, as in ħajja (life). It is a separate letter from h, so check that a converted document did not flatten it.
Għ and h are usually silent
għada, hu
In għada (tomorrow) the għ is not said as a g, and in hu (he) the h is silent. Readers who know English often get these wrong; the narrator reads them from the Maltese spelling.
Q is a catch in the throat
qalb
Maltese q is a glottal stop, the catch in "uh-oh", so qalb (heart) starts with a short stop rather than a k. Brand names that start with q in English stay English when typed that way.
Ħmistax-il ewro, ħames kotba
ħmistax-il ewro / ħames kotba
Before a noun, numbers 11 to 19 add -il and the noun stays singular, so ħmistax-il ewro. Smaller numbers take a short form and a plural noun, as in ħames kotba. Write prices as digits and listen to the preview.
Notices, lessons, tours, and ads in Malti
Maltese is a national language of Malta and an official EU language, alongside English at home and with a large community in Australia. Radio leans Maltese, so spoken Maltese reaches people that English text may not.

Customer testimonials
See why creators, publishers, and teams rely on Narration Box for natural-sounding voice content.
“Quality of voices and ease of use made Narration Box the perfect choice for my fiction podcast The Program. It's the only voice synthesis service that knew the difference between 'live frugally' and 'live broadcast' and that could pronounce Mar-a-Lago.”
Ivan
Creator, The program audio series
“We've been using Narration Box for a while now, and are grateful to the team behind it! It allows us to create audio versions of our books and articles in many languages, within seconds. The generated audio sounds very natural and is almost indistinguishable from a real narrator. What an amazing service for creators, and it keeps evolving! I highly recommend it.”
Reto Stuber
CEO, Stuber Media
“The user-interface is great. Nice and simple without too many bells and whistles. The array of voices are also good, though some are definitely better than others. With that said, you can adjust the speaking pace for each voice, which does improve the flow, making voices seem less artificial. Also, the free plan is generous.”
Tom W.
Filmmaker
Review on G2
“Narration Box has allowed me to get away from having to set up my own recording studio. Previously, I had an idea of hiring a human narrator but there was so much hassle as well as costs. The voice choices are pretty good, especially the enhanced voices. I love the options available to further personalize the AI narrator's speech within the text. Narration Box saved me so much time for several small projects. I actually made audio clips whilst writing another book.”

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Ħ and għ, euro number forms, Maltese and English mixing, clones, and exports.
Maltese text to speech
Is there a free Maltese TTS option to test my script?
Yes: sign up and 1,000 words are yours without a card, roughly a council notice and a radio spot. Watermarks mark the free files until you upgrade.
Do I get a Maltese-only voice, or can any narrator switch to Malti?
Both. Of the 1,500+ AI voices across 80+ languages, some are Enbee V1 voices made for Maltese. The clips on this page were made with 21 Enbee V2 narrators (12 female, 9 male), each able to switch to Maltese once the brief says "Speak in Maltese".
Does it read ħ and għ correctly?
Keep the real Maltese letters and the narrator reads ħ as the throat sound and għ as mostly silent, as in għada. If your text lost its dots or bars on the way, restore them before generating.
If I write meeting or boss inside Maltese, is it said in English?
Yes, when they are typed in English spelling, such as meeting or late. Words already written in Maltese spelling are read as Maltese. Play the first mixed block to check the switch sounds right for your audience.
How do I write euro prices so they come out as ħmistax-il ewro?
Write the amount with the euro sign, as in €15 or €25, and the narrator picks the Maltese form, such as ħmistax-il ewro or ħamsa u għoxrin ewro. Listen to prices in the preview before you publish.
Can I ask for a Gozo-style or village accent?
Standard Maltese is the default. Speech shifts from one locality to the next, so if you ask for a local flavour in the style line, test it on a short block first and keep it only if it sounds right to local ears.
Our publisher in Valletta has a Maltese novel ready. What is the route to audio?
Import the file as EPUB, PDF, or DOCX into the Audiobook Creator, review the chapters, and regenerate paragraphs after edits. You get chapter files to review and publish; acceptance is up to each store.
Can I clone a presenter so their voice reads every notice?
Yes, if it is your voice or the presenter has given permission. A short sample creates the clone, which you assign to Maltese or English blocks. Check the first few blocks closely, since clones vary.
Which files can I export for radio, web, or a tour app?
Hand a radio producer WAV, put MP3 on the website, or pick Opus, FLAC, or OGG; download one merged file or one per block. Paid plans include commercial use under the subscription terms.
