This handbook is suitable for anyone wishing to study Tigrinya - the most widely used of the various languages spoken in Eritrea which is also used in the neighbouring Tigrai region of Ethiopia and some parts of Begemeder and Wollo. Originally conceived by the Intermission Language Council in 1968, this new edition has been updated and revised to reflect the demands of modern times.
Written entirely in Tigrinya, this is a book for the advanced learner of the language. Using traditional grammatical analysis and, where this is too intricate, making comparisons with European and Amharic languages, this method represents a new analytical approach to the complex rules of Tigrinya grammar.
