Amharic translation

Amharic Translation by Native Ethiopian Linguists.

Documents, subtitles, voiceover and AI data in Amharic, written in Ge’ez script and checked by a second native linguist before delivery.

Quick Answer

What Should you Check Before Ordering Amharic Translation?

Confirm that the translator is a native Amharic speaker, that the final files use a Unicode Ethiopic font, and that a second native linguist reviews the text. Amharic is written in Ge’ez script, so layout, line breaks and fonts must be checked in the final format, not only in a Word file.

Common mistakes

Where Amharic Projects Go Wrong

Most problems in Amharic projects come from a few predictable gaps. This is what we check on every file.

Fonts break in layout. A design tool without an Ethiopic font shows empty boxes or wrong characters, so we check the final PDF or build.
Machine output is sent as final. We use machine translation only when you approve it, and a native linguist edits every sentence.
Dates are misread. Ethiopia uses its own calendar, about seven to eight years behind the Gregorian one, so we flag dates that readers could misread.
Numerals are inconsistent. Modern Amharic content mostly uses Western digits, and we follow the convention your market expects.
