Maltese
Etymology
From the syllable -ar in mt ar عَشَر ten. The same alternation between absolute and attributive form is found in most modern dialects of Arabic, though generally with the original consonant r preserved. Cognate with aeb ن n. Compare apc تنعش tnaʕš twelve, attributively apc تنعشر tnaʕšar.
Pronunciation
mt /ɪl/
Suffix
suffix
Used to form the attributive form of cardinal numbers 11 to 19.
mt erbatax fourteen → mt erbatax-il jum fourteen days
Usage notes
The suffix is spelt with a hyphen for phonetic reasons. It is, namely, apart from a few recent borrowings from English the only case where preconsonantal i in a final syllable is short. Thus, /ɛrbaˈtaːʃɪl/ is rendered as mt erbatax-il rather than mt *erbataxil, which latter should be pronounced */ɛrbataˈʃiːl/.
