Etiopskie rodzime prawo postępowania karnego i cywilnego, przekazywane ustnie z pokolenia na pokolenie, przestało obowiązywać w 1936 roku. Dlatego obecnie możemy polegać jedynie na skąpych danych uzyskanych od starszyzny i następnie zapisanych. Materiał omawiany w tym artykule został zaczerpnięty w głównej mierze z dwóch książek: autorstwa Ńibäńi Lämmy (po amharsku) oraz An Introduction to the Legal History of Ethiopia, 1434-1974 napisanej przez Aberrę Jambere. Podejściem badawczym, które posłużyło do jego zinterpretowania jest oralność rozumiana tutaj jako "autonomiczny typ egzystencji‖ (Roch Sulima) oraz typ komunikacji. Jeśli chodzi o ten drugi wymiar oralności, wzięto pod uwagę jego następujące cechy: język jako działanie, formuły i stereotypy, agonistyczność interakcji, zaangażowanie w relacje międzyludzkie oraz somatyczność. W artykule przytoczono oraz omówiono kilkanaście utworów poetyckich i dialogów, przeplatanych zagadkami oraz przysłowiami. Celem tego jest dogłębniejsze zrozumienie pojęcia sprawiedliwości wśród Amharów, a także innych składników ich kultury.

The coursebook will target university students at A1 level, and in its content and structure will aim, for the first time in the history of Amharic language teaching, to conform to the spirit of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. Topic-based and task-based syllabi will form the backbone of the coursebook. It will contain a range of activities in which students, while learning grammar, are engaged in using new language in a meaningful, communicative way. Apart from developing the usual four language skills, among which priority will be given to oral practice, the coursebook will help students to acquire cultural competence and support them in improving their language learning strategies.

The letter was copied into one of the books housed in the Qǝddǝst Maryam monastery in Qäqäma. It deals with the Trinitarian and Christological doctrines and is addressed to the clergy of Tǝgray. Because of its historical significance, the present article aims at editing and commenting this document.

The tagset contains forty-seven tags grouped into twelve parts of speech. It is hoped that it provides a starting point for more exhaustive guidelines for prospective annotators.

Although the majority of Amharic textbooks give due consideration to the teaching of verbs, the activities that they offer only allow the student to get familiar with forms, in isolation from their meaning and context of use.The aim of this paper is to propose a way of introducing learners to the Amharic verbal system while focusing on form in communicative interactions. I argue that the system can be introduced, traditionally, with the perfective form, and in contexts involving meaningful communication. I also suggest a more student-centred (inductive) approach to presenting and explaining grammar in general and to the verbal system in particular.My discussion is illustrated by an exemplary unit from a course book that targets two perfective forms, third singular masculine and third singular feminine.
