<b>Description:</b>
 
Harari (sometimes (H)aderi or (H)adere) is the language of the Harari people of Ethiopia. According to the 1998 Ethiopian census, it is spoken by 21,283 people. Most of its speakers are multilingual in Amharic and/or Oromo. Harari is closely related to the East Gurage languages, Zay and Silt'e. Locals or natives of this city also refer to it as "Gey sinan" (Language of the City). Several words are of Arabic or (to a lesser extent) Italian origin. Originally written in the Arabic script, it has recently converted to the Ge'ez alphabet.
Masculine nouns may be converted into feminines by three processes. The first changes the terminal vowel into -it, or adds -it to the terminal consonant:
e.g. rágá, an old man; rágít, an old woman. e.g. bushshí, a dog; bushshít, a bitch. e.g. wasíf, a slave boy; wasífít, a slave girl.
Animals of different sexes have different names. and this forms the second process:
e.g. bárá, an ox; lám, a cow.
The third and the most common way of expressing sex is by means of abosh, "male or man," and inistí: woman, " female ":
They correspond with our " he-" and " she-."
e.g. faras, a stallion; inisti faras, a mare. e.g. abosh baghl, a he mule; inisti baghl, a she<i>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.html?curid=3125285 ..... full article at Wikipedia]</i></td></tr>
