Learning is a constant process of discovery- a process without end.

Welcome to part 6 of the learn Amharic series. Today, we will be learning about animals. Like the body parts lesson, I can’t possibly give you the name for every animal, but I have included the most common animals. Again, today’s blog will be like the last, with just the vocab words since there aren’t any rules we have to talk about.
