Ethiopia was the first place that I visited where I had absolutely no clue about the language. They tell time differently too.

a little history for you here in case you were not aware... in 1938 Italy had occupied some parts of Ethiopia and received recognition from most countries who were too busy fighting Germany. Only seven countries refused to accept this Italian occupation, and Mexico was the only country to strongly condemn. For that support and since then in Addis Ababa, the capital city, there is a roundabout named "Mexico Square". To reciprocate, in Mexico City there is a Metro Etiopia. When I went to university in Texas many years ago, my friends and I visited Mexico often. mostly Ciudad Juarez., and twice to Mexico City, and spent a week in La Pesca. one day, I will return there!!!

Hi, I live in Israel, and often hear Amharic. It doesn't sound like any language I know the sounds of. I'd like to say a bit about the Ethiopians. So many are very special people: police, sensitive--many bright and talented. It has be terrifically difficult for the to adjust to the Western culture. For example, in Ethiopia, a forty year old man would be considered retirement age, with his children proudly taking over the (farm) responsibilities and supporting the parents. Here, his life is stressful and complicated. As a teacher, I was very touched by the Ethiopian youth. I wished some of their good qualities had rubbed off on the often rude Israelis! Still, many have adjusted and do well, generally easier for the younger than their parents and grandparents.

Yes, I am Ethiopian American, my parents are professionals migrated to US. I think Israel may not have the structure to nurture and help immigrants to adapt easily. If I may say so, I was appalled by the attitude of being Very judgmental and rude culturally. On the other hand In US we have a supportive, nurturing system to immigrates. ( I know people think Americans are aloud…..but not rude and disrespectful ) As they are many immigrants and came from various countries US has a well organized structure and provides nurturing involvement. It might be US is a much wealthier country compared to Israel. In general We have more opportunities not only to survive further to thrive to the majority of immigrants. The other thing is that US is unique in appreciating and valuing immigrants skills because of this the thriving follows.

@Real Sid206 Hi, I'm not sure you asking me (Behzad Parsa) or miss Julie if you're asking me I have to admit I don't understand what you mean by geez are you talking about Jesus I'm just guessing I am not sure let me know please.

[@behzadparsa44]

@Real Sid206 It is hard to say because when people start moving different direction and getting separate from each other as a group start developing different dialog, different accent and true time long time generations thousands years they becomes different languages and some of them might be developed in the same time in different places my guess would be those ancient Afro-semitic languages they are not in use anymore as they call it dead languages which is like a ancient Egyptian, akkadian, old Aramic, old Babylon....est. I hope this help.

[@tmarcel1594]

Wow, I can see you really did a fine research into the Amarigna language. Well, done!!

[@esalehtismaki]

I can hear that it's related to hebrew and arabic, but sounds quite different. Interesting language.

[@rediettadesse2828]

Geez and tigrigna(more ancient ethiosemitics) sounds more arabic .. amharic(derived from geez) not so much

[@tomygemorawa4056]

Which Hebrew do mean? The dead Biblical Hebrew might have some similar vocabulary but not the new European settlers mish- mash so called Hebrew which has not at all a Semitic phonology. Biblical Hebrew has borrowed from Ethiopic Ge'ez the seven vowel in the 9th century and Arabic too in 8th century AD after the rise of Islam in the Arabian Peninsula.

When it comes to writing in any language you use the phonetic or syllabic system. The phonetic system is like in English. It uses consonants and vowels. Vowels are a e i o u and y. The rest are consonants. In this system the letters are few because you use vowels and consonants to create as much sound as you wish. In syllabic language a letter is allocated to every sound. This makes the letters numerous. in the case of Amharic more than 200. But it has its own advantage. in syllabic languages once you memorized the letters you don't have to worry about spelling error. You don't have study spelling. A six grade student is as precise as professor when it comes to spelling. That is not the case in English. Spelling error is a problem in languages using the phonetic system. Redundancy in syllabic.

[@deehope9477]

Lol that's true, you don't have spelling errors in Amheric writing. Also, hard language if not born in to..

[@atmike123]

As an Ethiopian I really admired what you presented and the way you presented it. I knew Paul from Canada (Langfocus) who is a linguiste who presented the same topic. Thank you for elaborating on the history of the language too. Keep it up.

To me spoken Amharic is very much its own language, but with Semitic phonology. If I didn’t already know and you told me it was related to Arabic I wouldn't be surprised.

The video regurgitates some old colonial whitewashing of the history. There is no evidence that supports ge'ez came outside of its territories

[@k8terama259]

Wow, what an extremely interesting and complex language (especially those numbers and conjugations!!!)! Ethiopia sounds fascinating! It would be neat if you did one on Irish/Irish Gaelic...I wonder how it compares to the Welsh (since they're both in the Celtic language family)

[@Mookmaista]

The native speaker section was very interesting! When the first man spoke, it sounded a little like Arabic with African language influences, and the "ooh"s sounding like Farsi. Then the second woman spoke and it sounded a lot more like Hindi at the start and then even a bit Nordic towards the end - agree it's a very unique-sounding language!

No plausible evidence of Brahmi or Greek on ge'ez

[@Gebri3l]

​@@BF-bb5us Not only is geez influenced by Greek and Indians our cultures, our churches, our people in general are influenced by Greek and Indians It's an old language but it's still learns

[@BF-bb5us]

@@Gebri3l Where is the Greek influence on Ge'ez? and the introduction of vowels is said to be a innovation of the Eritrean and Ethiopian people. We had this trading nation and we were the only ones influenced by this trade. Eritreans and Ethiopians have internalised a lot of western bias and can't see through it. Where is the Indian influence that you speak of.
