Re: Ilma
in reply to a message by Lily
Ilma does mean water in Maltese. (http://www.aboutmalta.com/language/engmal.htm)I couldn't find anything about the Arabic meaning (made more difficult since you also have to deal with transliteration), but according to Wikipedia Ilm refers to knowledge of Islam (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilm_%28Arabic%29).

Thank you for the links! It seems to be a masculine word in Maltese, though :P
