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.

Small choices — dialect, script, register — change whether a Amharic document is accepted on filing. Here is what we watch for.

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.

Also need Amharic interpretation?

On-site, video (VRI) and phone (OPI) Amharic interpretation for courts, hospitals, USCIS interviews and business settings.
