Supported Languages
- Amharic (Ge'ez) - The official language of Ethiopia
- Tigrinya - Spoken in Eritrea and northern Ethiopia
- Tigre - Spoken in Eritrea
- Ge'ez - The ancient liturgical language
How It Works
Our phonetic keyboard uses a simple system similar to GeezIME and Lexilogos:
- Type consonant + vowel combinations (e.g., "se" = ሰ, "la" = ላ)
- Use capital letters for special characters (e.g., "A" = ዓ, "H" = ሐ)
- Double consonants for certain sounds (e.g., "sh" = ሽ)
Our Story
GeezKTB was created to serve the Ethiopian and Eritrean diaspora communities around the world. We understand the importance of staying connected to our roots through language, and we're committed to providing tools that make this easier.
