Every word in your Tigrinya reading passage is clickable. Get English translations and grammar help as you read the Ge'ez script.
Type any topic and LingoBear generates a fresh Tigrinya reading passage — useful when learning materials are concentrated in the Horn of Africa.
Tigrinya (ትግርኛ) is an Ethio-Semitic language with around 9 million speakers — the working language of Eritrea (alongside Arabic) and one of the official languages of the Tigray region in Ethiopia. It descends, with Amharic and Tigre, from the ancient Ge'ez language and is the closest living relative of Ge'ez. The Eritrean and Ethiopian varieties differ in pronunciation and some vocabulary.
Tigrinya is a Semitic language with triconsonantal roots, SOV word order, two grammatical genders, and verb morphology marking subject, object, gender and politeness. The Fidäl script (an abugida) has 33 base consonants, each with seven vowel-modified forms, plus extra labio-velarised characters — around 240 syllabic shapes in everyday use. LingoBear lets you see these patterns in real text.
