Four starting levels

The subject may already be inside the Amharic verb.

Amharic verbs can carry the person, tense and other details at once. Repeating a short exchange helps you hear and retrieve the full verb as a unit.

Build from a useful final verb, then add the object and polite form the situation needs without translating the English order.

Tell Chicky where to start

Help me practise an Amharic cafe conversation. Use a respectful form, let me finish each reply and then break down one difficult verb before I repeat it.

Change the scene, the level or the correction focus whenever you want. The tutor follows the new brief.

Give your Amharic a real situation.

Choose a scene you may actually meet this week. A real situation gives you words you can reuse.

  1. 01Greet an older person respectfully
  2. 02Order coffee and ask for the price
  3. 03Ask where a minibus is going
  4. 04Tell a colleague when you will arrive

Fix the sentence while it is still fresh.

You hear the better sentence while your own answer is still fresh, then use it again.

  1. Answer

    Say what you can, even when the sentence is not finished.

  2. Repair

    Ask for help or get one focused correction on the useful part.

  3. Continue

    Say the better sentence, then take the next turn.
