Ge’ez is an ancient Ethiopian language which is still important for the liturgy of the Orthodox church.The dictionary is arranged in the order of the Ge’ez syllabary. All the basic as well as the derived forms are presented in the Ge’ez alphabet and in phonetic transcription. The transcription should be helpful in indicating the correct pronunciation of the entries. The dictionary includes nearly all the entries that are considered essential for students of Ge’ez.
