While teaching my children Amharic, a semetic language widely spoken in Ethiopia, it became evident that there is a lack of appropriate learning materials that are suitable for beginners and small children. There is a deficit in the market for educational products that are good quality, interesting and engaging. This initiated project ha : hu : : (Ha Hu translates or is equivalent to ABC).
| ha : hu : : | is an Amharic/Ge’ez alphabet learning game currently under construction. The game is designed to simplify and make language learning enjoyable for beginners and children alike.
