// Quick rundown on Maltese Unicode: [If you're not sure what 'c.' means,
// --------------------------------- look up in the Unicode Book the page
// c. = U+010B C. = U+010A 'ch' with the 01xx code points, or www.unicode.org]
// g. = U+0121 G. = U+0120 soft G
// h/ = U+0127 H/ = U+0126 voiced H [or 2nd letter of unvoiced gh/]
// z. = U+017c Z. = U+017B 'dz'
//
// COMBINING MARKS:
// There is no combining mark for the slash (h/)
// but, U+0307 is the DOT ABOVE needed for z., c., and g. (in collation rules)
