Ethiopic (Geʽez, <span class="autonym">ግዕዝ, ፊደል</span>) is an African abugida,
|
||
written left-to-right (18 million users). Used for Ethiosemitic languages like
|
||
Tigré, Amharic and Tigrinya and some Cushitic and Nilotic languages. Was used
|
||
in the 1st–12th century CE in Ethiopia and Eritrea for the Geʽez language (now
|
||
a liturgical language). Needs software support for complex text layout
|
||
(shaping). Read more on
