Huge thanks to our volunteer Lulit for translating our words to Amharic. Amharic, according to Wikipedia, is "is a Semitic language spoken in North Central Ethiopia by the Amhara. It is the second most spoken Semitic language in the world, after Arabic, and the official working language of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia."
Also, "Many Rastafarians learn Amharic as a second language because they consider it to be a sacred language, and even the original language."
If you can't see the font, here is a page that can help you: Can't see Amharic font? , for me personally (I use Windows XP and Vista), the following installation worked perfectly: GF Zemen self install
What's next? This Saturday I am going to meet Lulit and record audio for those lessons. Stay tuned!
