Maltese

Alternative forms

Etymology

Borrowed from Italian esibire.

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /ɛ.sɪˈbɪʃ.ʃa/

Verb

esibixxa (imperfect jesibixxi, past participle esibit)

1. to exhibit, to display
2. (law) to submit to trial

Conjugation

• The traditional rule is that the syllable -ixx- is lost before stressed endings; that is in the past tense, before -x, and before a pronominal suffix. The contemporary tendency is to either keep -ixx- in all forms or avoid it in all forms (see esiba above).
