Reviews

'Colloquial Amharic is a good introduction for learners in spoken Amharic. For beginners and for self-improvers 'key to exercises' is very useful for controlling one's own improvements ... the author is to be congratulated for preparing an Amharic language course accompanied by recorded cassettes. We wish it a lot of readers. - Aethiopica, 1998
