Maltese language
The modern language derived from the Siculo-Arabic spoken in Malta is known as the Maltese language. While "Siculo-Arabic" refers to the language spoken before 1300, there are hardly any records during the 14th century, and the earliest record in the Maltese language is "Il Cantilena" ("Xidew il-Qada") by Pietru Caxaro (late 15th century), which was written in the Latin script.
