"ħtieġ" meaning in Maltese

See ħtieġ in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Verb

IPA: /ˈħtɪːt͡ʃ/
Etymology: From Arabic اِحْتَاجَ (iḥtāja, “to need”). The impersonal use seems to mirror that of Italian bisognare, but the Arabic passive يُحْتاجُ أَن (yuḥtāju ʔan) is also used in this way, so the Romance influence is not certain.
