## What is Amharic?

Amharic app makes learning the language so easy and fun. 

Long the sole official language of Ethiopia, the Amharic language has recently been joined by a handful others to be designated as one of the working languages of the country. 

Amharic is spoken by a large part of the country population and its diaspora either as a first language or as a second. It is one of the most widely spoken Semitic languages in the world.

Amharic app allows you to get familiar with the various parts of this intriguing language at your own pace. And if you are already fluent in Amharic, you will find this app to be an excellent reference.

You can learn the basics starting with the letters of the Alphabet and then work your way through the numeric symbols and punctuation marks. You may then go on to build your Amharic word power one by one, by navigating through categories or by searching for their English equivalents in the vocabulary section.

While you are in the Vocabulary section, you can learn how to communicate with common phrases such as ‘Thank You’, ‘Hello’, ‘Goodbye’ and much more.

In the likely case that you are interested in the sounds of the words and characters of the Amharic language you can hear how they sound as recorded by a native speaker.

### 5/5 — Love the app

*2025-03-15*

The app is great, a very quality app. I use it all the time to learn my first language. However there is a problem, in the for you tab it comes up bland with no information all I see is a picture of a subject and nothing else, it maybe a bug that can be fixed. Thanks

### 2/5 — Decent but missing components

*2019-01-09*

The app has decent features but the selling features (puzzle and flash card) are missing. I probably wouldn’t have paid $5.99 if I knew that was the case

**Developer response:** Dear Amhariclearner, 

If you would allow us a belated response, you might be pleased to know that those features are hiding in plain sight!

The Letter puzzle is available when you are studying the letters. Tap on the right arrow > when you are in the Alphabet screen. 

Once you are in the letter view, proceed to tap on the action button on the top right of the screen. Voila! You find the letter puzzle.

The flash cards are available in the Vocabulary section. Once you are there, tap on the upward action arrow, and, Voila! the flash cards are at your service. 

Do feel free to explore these and other feature and drop us a line if you have questions, comments or suggestions.

### 4/5 — Decent Amharic Resource

*2017-08-07*

This is a decent app that has been getting pretty regular updates through the years. Far from a language course, it serves as a study tool that you can use during those "hidden moments" throughout the day.

Considering the lack of decent Amharic learning resources out there, I am tempted to give this app 5 stars. However, I definitely see room for improvement and will leave that last star when I feel it's truly been earned.

Great job though and thanks for helping others learn this difficult language.

### 5/5 — The best app

### 3/5 — Not Working
