Can someone please tell me what the English word for maltas is? Maltas is an herb supposedly useful, possibly in folk medicine, for treatment of anemia. Might originate from the Dominican Republic.

agree  Muriel Vasconcellos: In this context, I would use the singular, "malt." It becomes plural when you're talking about different types of malt.
