This paper provides a descriptive overview of extra argumental or non-selected datives in Maltese, poorly described in existing grammars. We outline an LFG approach to the facts we describe bulding on existing LFG work and in particular on Kibort (2008)'s approach to dative arguments, extending her approach to the various subclasses of non-selected dative arguments.
