Ohhhh nice I misse it adds Ethiopia

Sweet food

[@Fet7annur]

Enjera is with a hamza rather than 3ayn, perhaps I might have overheard you but amharic transliteration in latin alphabets doesn't use unique sounds as in c for 3ayn etc except for ch, t, p in certain sounds. the alphabets amharic uses are ge'ez alphabet rather than amharic which tigrigna and some other languages also use. while amharic doesn't use 3ayn, tigrigna uses it and some other sounds that resemble arabic and since all these languages are semitic they share a lot of similar words across languages like the one you noticed on the other video "Dereja". I came across one of your videos and watching one after the other non stop pretty much tells the quality and naturality of your content which made me end up subscribing. I must say I enjoyed it. If you're still in Addis, there're some more places you could add to your adventure that I can help you visit. Cheers!

[@Rubytwosteppin]

Ahhh this is so interesting, thank you for all the information! I really appreciate you taking the time to inform me; I always want to know more. I also really appreciate your kind words and support about my channel 💛. Unfortunately I won’t have time for any more this time but I would love more places for when I come back again in shaa Allaah

3:29 😂 I've heard that before. My former housemate in the U.S. couldn't stand the sight of injera. Maybe she had trypophobia? 🤷🏽‍♀️ 3:41 Baghrir is what you're thinking of, I think. I would've also gobbled up the lasagna instead, since it's my favorite food. 😋🧀 My housemate actually loved the lasagna I used to make. I just love cheese so much, but I don't want to clog my arteries. lol 6:04 Interesting that you say that. I used to hang out at a hookah spot frequented by Somalis. I couldn't understand them at all if they weren't speaking English. To me, it sounded more similar to Afar rather than Amharic. My mom's side of the family speaks Afar. Both Somali and Afar use Latin alphabets. I took two semesters of Arabic in college, and there are a lot of words that sound similar, if not exactly the same in Amharic. Makes sense, since both are Semetic languages. 8:26 Regarding the church you went to, it sounds like it was a pentecostal or evangelical church. 8:39 Oromo* I had a pentay friend who used to beg me to go to his church with him knowing full well that I'm muslim. I had no interest in committing shirk, so I politely declined each time. I find that orthodox christians are more respectful of other faiths and don't try and force their beliefs onto others. I think when pentay people proselytize, it's their way of giving da'wah, but it can get annoying when they become persistent. 🙄 Anyway, I enjoyed listening to your perspective. 💜

[@Rubytwosteppin]

To be honest, I could have been hearing Oromo or Afar when I thought it sounded Somali! Yes, baghrir of course, that’s the one! Yeah I would have liked to experience an Orthodox church to be honest; we just went for any one we found as we were both clueless 😅. We heard singing and just went in. They were very welcoming. Thank you for listening ❤❤❤

Hi beautiful Ruby 😊

Heyyy lovely Harriet, my teacher 😂 😘❤️

In what world does Amharic sound Somali one is semetic and other is Cushitic origins

​@@RubytwosteppinThen, your world must be the la-la land. You see, the language you described as Amharic is not Amharic at all. You confused Amharic with some other local language (perhaps Afan Oromo). Afan-Oromo uses those double cononants you mentioned and uses latin. it is very similar to Somali, too. Amhariic on the other hand, doesn't even use latin. Moreover, Amharic is not gutteral like Somali, and doesn't even pronoince "aain" as you claimed. Amharic uses Geez alphabet. You'r saucy and opinionate, to say the least. But I kind of like your accent.

[@atogondar2640]

It is similar to cottage cheese

[@Rubytwosteppin]

The flavour is very different, cottage cheese has a stronger and more bitter taste

Oh cool! Thank you

[@ahadu_entertainment]

It's not called dua its called "Tselot" & the way u say about hands is giving me that u went to Protestant church if u go to orthodox church u will see the way we do it. 9:03

[@Rubytwosteppin]

Amazing - thanks for the info!

[@Rubytwosteppin]

Thanks for explaining!

[@solomonnuri8379]

I like the fact that you are open minded and quikly learned a lot in couple days. But from what I hear you were in one of Protestant Church, not Orthodox Church. You may want to find some one to take you there and see how it's practiced.

[@Non-e8j]

Amharic has its own alphabet for writing and spoken language. The majority of words you’re saying it’s the Muslims m that use those words. The Christians don’t use it but in Addis the Muslims trying to make it main stream .

Hello

[@nmariam123]

somali and amharic totaly different language amharic is semetic language, close to.hebrew arabic armaic tigraigna gurage

[@Black-lioness]

Dulet is like hugges intesine,liver and minced meat , the cheese (ayab) is like ractoa. not everyone is Muslim and we don't speak Arabic it is better to speak English sometimes. Somalian languag is similar Oromfit. The hand guster you have seen in church is not always praticed like you have have demostrated for pleaing for mercy we put our hand up and when receving blessing we put it lower body guster.

[@Rubytwosteppin]

Thank you so much for all this info! It’s so interesting and useful. I can’t believe I ate the dulet 😂 I am glad I didn’t know what it was because I wouldn’t have eaten it…but I liked it!

[@Black-lioness]

@@Rubytwosteppin😂 glad served

[@yohannesmisikir7056]

Ethiopia is the only country in Africa that has its own alphabet,not even a single one except us. And whereabouts in England are you from?

[@smartcityfool]

Wrong, the alphabet is from geez, a language used only in Coptic and Catholic liturgies, and some Eritrean and Ethiopian languages are written in these alphabets.

[@yohannesmisikir7056]

@smartcityfool Ge'ez is from Ethiopia buddy 😂😂

[@michaelmekonnen6514]

Do you know Ethiopia is welcomed Islam before almost all Arabic countries? My wife is a Muslim and she told me that it’s on Quran. The profit sent his followers when time is hard he told them to go to Ethiopia.

[@ikqmdfyslcbe]

Ya like ayhuds welcome christianity right?

[@Aftasport]

I'm sure you goes to Protestant church not the Orthodox. Orthodox Christianity is the one practiced more than thousand years in Ethiopia. In Orthodox church they prey with a holding gesture like the Muslims.

[@Rubytwosteppin]

Yes you’re right, I have realised that since 🥲

[@verahaile7521]

Just to let you know, sacking the fingers is a big no no in our culture 🤕
