The Amharic-speaking diaspora

Ethiopian diaspora communities are significant in Washington DC, Minneapolis, London, Toronto, and many European cities. Ethiopian Orthodox Christianity is one of the oldest continuous Christian traditions in the world. For diaspora members attending English-language churches, Amharic translation creates a bridge between cultures.

Bible availability in Amharic

The Amharic Bible (Amharic Bible Translation) is widely available and is the standard text for Ethiopian Protestant and evangelical churches. The Ethiopian Orthodox Church uses Ge'ez for liturgy, but Amharic for teaching and preaching.

Script and display notes

Amharic is written in the Ethiopic script (Fidäl). Voco's attendee reader supports Unicode rendering for Amharic text.
