Gharb Mayor David Apap Agius, has said that “together with a number of Councils from Italy we continue to discover more about the dialects, their aim and purpose through the European project – Dialects.”

The Mayor said to his “great surprise, a number of mayors and students visited me to discuss the Dialects project. The purpose of the project is to discover the origins and find detailed evidence about the dialects.”

He explained that what is expected from this project is the research, cataloguing and careful study of linguistic documents which can be available for research and translate into reference and prove evidence of dialects in various countries.

The Gharb Mayor said, “we look forward to participating and discover more about – Il-Brejku,” the secret language that used to be spoken in Gharb, and which is now only know to a handful of people.
