May Butcher (26 August 1886, Great Grimsby, Lincolnshire - 21 December 1950, Malta)〔(List of all burials ) at Ta Braxia Cemetery in Pietà, Malta from 1857 to 2000〕 was an English-born Maltese writer who translated several works from the Maltese language into English. Butcher was the fourth of nine children of Colonel Henry Townsend Butcher and Annie Susan Dalrymple-Hay.〔(Family of Henry Townsend Butcher/Annie Susan Dalrymple-Hay ) at FamilySearch.com〕 She translated the words of the Maltese national anthem (L-Innu Malti), and translated the biography of Mikiel Anton Vassalli. One of her most important works is the book ''Elements in Maltese'', published in 1938, which provides details not only on the Semitic aspect of the Maltese language, but also gives importance to the Romantic aspect. A street in Iklin, Malta bears her name. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「May Butcher」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
