Then type "Amharic script" into the search and it should lead you to her Amharic book, "Amharic Ethiopian Script: Lakech One". (Or try clicking HERE but not sure if the direct link will work for everyone)
Also, my mother in law sent us a fabulous new CD of Ethiopian kids songs that comes with a book that provides a basic pronunciation and translation guide. We can sing along with two of the songs already (both counting songs, hooray our number pronunciation is OK!) and will hopefully learn a few more over the weekend. It's called "The Life of Childhood Amharic Kids Songs" and is exclusively distributed by Abshiro Kids. FUN!

How fun! I might have to get that cd for Micah - he is a music freak!
Thank you for those links! :)
I ordered one of each. We have a CD of African lullabies and children's songs. Only one of the songs is from Ethiopia though. I realize I'm biased, but I think it's by far the most "catchy", up-beat of all the songs!
Thanks for sharing all of your resources.... you're awesome about that. I wish, I wish, I WISH there was someone around here that could tutor us in/with Amharic. I do so much better in person than by book or computer.
Have a great weekend!
Hey that is really cool, I will need to check it out...!
