There are two(?) Maltese members here....
Personally I am not ashamed of the native language, it reflects our history. I find it amusing when I go to places like Tunis and people there actually speak to me in Maltese... had a Serbian friend who could speak it very very well too.
Also, I am actually Gozitan, which means I speak an older version / dialect of Maltese which is much much more similar to Arabic.
I think maltese people are like sicilians/south italians.
Language is semitic

Maltese has elements of both. I voted "Arabic" because Maltese seems to have more affinities in that direction.
