Amharic in the United States
Who speaks Amharic, and where they turn up.
Amharic is a Semitic language and the working language of Ethiopia's federal government, spoken by 30+ million people. It uses the unique Fidel / Ge'ez script.
DC / Maryland (Silver Spring, Alexandria) has one of the largest Ethiopian diaspora populations outside Addis Ababa. Minneapolis, Seattle, Atlanta, Denver and Los Angeles also host major communities.

Linguistic considerations
Getting Amharic right.

Script & typography
Amharic uses the Ge'ez (Fidel) script, which renders left-to-right with syllabic characters. We maintain certified terminology bases for federal, legal and medical terms.
