RE: [libreoffice-l10n] Maltese Translations

Is it possible out of all the strings for tranaslation for someone to go through them and see if

Like I said, the words should be relevant. And you probably want suggestions for words, not 
sentences or messages, because it's unlikely that the app would contain lots of occurrences of the 
same sentence.

So I'm not sure what .po file you would base your compendium on. :)
