Learning Amharic is an exiting thing , quite a number of people now speak amharic pronounced as “Amar-gna”
by the locals . Some even take language courses to perfect themselves .

Today we’ll be starting the lessons by considering few simple Amharic sentences.The sentences will be divided
into subject and Predicate to help ease the problem.

Ethiopia is inside Africa .

Ethiopia Africa wist Nat

Here the word ‘ wist Nat ‘ is almost similar to saying ‘ she’s inside’ ,which assumes Ethiopia as in a female
Gender. let’s Look at another example .

The boy is asleep .

Liju tegn-tual.

The word ‘ Liju ‘ (The boy/boy) has its roots from ‘ Lij ‘ (child) .The predicate following Liju tells us the boy
has already slept , tegn-tual .

The hyphen used here is nothing but an aid to help the reader pronounce the word in the right way . It’s
not a two or more word.

The weather is Good.

Ayeru Des-yilal or similarly , Ayeru t’-iru naew .

Ayeru directly refers to ‘ The weather ‘ when Des-yila shows happiness .

He came to the city.

Esu Ketema me – t’ -a.

me – t’ -a / Esu me – t’ -a should refer to ‘ he came ‘, where ketema is the city.

Words containing t’ are given a special emphasis here ,because they should be pronounced by placing
your tongue in between your upper and lower, front teeth. You may probably find it to be difficult , don’t
bother much right now .

She watches Tv.

Esua Tv ayech.
