: Year; ዓም/ ʿām.

ዓም/ ʿām: (ዐረብ) Year; era; sum of many days; their cycle and calculation; 365 days and a quarter; having four seasons and twelve months within it. Its root and origin is ዐመመ/ ʿämämä (to be ill) but when it is spelled with an aleph, it shows certainty and firmness. “በውእቱ ሳብዕ ዓም።” In that seventh year. “በሣልስ ዓም እምዘነግሠ።” In the third year of his reign. “በኵሱ ዓም ወዓመት።” In his year and year. “ዓም እምዓም።” Year after year. “ዓመ ከመ ዮም።” A year like a day. “እመ ትፈሪ ለዓሙ” If it bears fruit next year (ዘሌ፳፭: ፳። አስቴ፩: ፫። ኩፋ: ፮ና: ፴፪። ዘፍ፲፰: ፲። ሉቃ፲፫: ፱).

ዓሣ ት/ ʿāśśā t: (ዕብ ዓሽ። ዐረ ዑሸት፤ ዕፄ) sea animal whose form and species are distinct. The mystery of its name is like a worm and a leech, moving without legs by the hearts suction; it must also have primacy. “እገሌ ዓሣ ነው እንዲሉ።” Soandso is a fish, they say. “በከመ ዓሣ ሶበ ወፅአ እማይ ይመውት ፍጡነ።” As a fish, when it comes out of water, dies quickly. “ዓሣተ ባሕር ወአዕዋፈ ሰማይ” Fish of the sea and birds of the sky (ፊልክ: ፷፩። ዘፍ፩: ፳፮).

ዓሥራይ/ ʿāśrāy: (ዊ ሪት) This is like it; tenth. “በዓሥራይ ወርኅ” In the tenth month (ሕዝ፴፫: ፳፩).

ዓዲ [1]: ዳግመኛ፤ –ዐድይ ዐደየ።

ዓዲ/ ʿādī [1]: Again; ዐድይ/ ʿädy ዐደየ/ ʿädäyä (again he did).

[2]: (ዕብ ዖድ) Minor conjunction; still; also; again; now; but; it can also be a waw (and). When it is but, it is a major conjunction; but it does not lose its meaning of again. “ዓዲ ኢበጽሐ ጊዜሁ።” His time has not yet come. “ተዐገሡ ዓዲ ኀሙሰ መዋዕለ።” Wait yet a little while. “እስከ ዓዲሁ።” Until now. ዓዲ ሊተኒ/ Even I (ዮሐ፯: ፰። ዮዲ፰: ፴። አፈ: ድ፬። ፊልጵ፪: ፳፯). ዓዲየ/ ʿādiyä; it is conjugated from ኪ/ ki, ሁ/ hu, ሃ/ ha up to ten as ዓዲነ/ ዓዲነ/ ʿādinä. “ዋዌ ሲኾን፤ ሄሮድስ ወጲላጦስ ተንሥኡ ቅድመ እንበለ ፍትሕ ላዕለ አቡሁ ቀባዒ ወላዕለ ወልዱ ቅቡዕ፤ ከማሆሙ ዓዲ ተንሥኡ በግፍዕ።” When it is a waw, Herod and Pilate rose up together against his holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed; just like them, they also rose up unjustly. “ዓዲ ኢታንክርዋ ለዘትመጽእ ኀቤነ፤ መከራ ዘሃይማኖት እስመ ፍዳ ዕሴት አኀዊነ” Do not be surprised at what will come to us again; the suffering of faith, for it is the reward of our brethren (ቅኔ). (ዕር፲፱: ቍ፹፪).

ዓዶት/ ʿādōt: (ትግ ሐባ። ዕብ ዳት) Law, ordinance; tradition of the fathers; custom of the country (ማር፯: ፫). The fact that Hamasien people say ʿādäy for my mother and the Galla people say ዓደይ/ ʿādätō agrees with this.

ዔ/ ʾē: (አራም) Name of a letter; ʿayn ዐ. What is called ʿayn in Arabic, Geez, and Hebrew is called ʾē in Aramaic. “ዔ ገበርከ ፍትሐ ወጽድቀ” You have dealt justly and righteously (መዝ፻፲፰: ፻፳፩። ሰቈ፩: ፲፮። ፪: ፲፮። ፫: ፵፬። ፬: ፲፮).

ዔላ/ ʾēlā: (ላት) Water pit; well of water; storage, reservoir. “ዔላ ዘውእቱ ምእላደ ማይ” A well that is a source of water; . . . . . “ያመጽኡ ሎሙ ማየ ወይመልእዎ በዔላት” they bring them water and fill it in wells (ታምረ: ማር).

ዔረግ/ ʾēräg [1]: (ዕብ ሄሬግ፤ የሰይፍ ሞት። ዐረ ሒርግ) Trap; snare; animal trap. “እስመ ፍቅረ ወይን ተብህለ ለሰይጣን ዔረጉ” For the love of wine is called the trap of Satan (ደራሲ).

[2]: (ዕብ ክሉብ) Cage; basket; birdhouse; made of woven vines or wire; see ሐረገ/ ḥäräg. “ከመ ዔረግ ዘምሉእ አዕዋፈ” Like a cage full of birds (ኤር፭: ፳፯). It says ዔረግ/ ʾēräg instead of ፍሬ/ fruit, and “ሙዳይ” mūdāy instead of ዔረግ/ ʾēräg; it is wrong. “ሙዳየ ዔረግ” Basket of ʾēräg (ዓሞ፰: ፩ –፪). But the Hebrew says ክሉብ ቃይጽ/ klūbh qayits, which means summer basket; it shows it is full of fruit. But the old commentators say በለው/ bälew ሰይፍ/ säyf, ጻብታ/ ṣābətā ፃግታ/ ṣāgətā, meaning “የበዳ ጸብት ንዋየ ሐቅል” a quiver of arrows, equipment of the field. Furthermore, instead of saying ሙዳየ ዔረግ / mūdāyē ʾēräg, it says ቄረጽ፤ ይቄርጽ/ qēräṣ, yəqērṣə, which they call scissors; its reading and meaning are not successful.

[3]: Trap; ዐየረ/ ʿäyärä.

ዔር/ ʾēr [1]: (ዕብ ዒር) Guardian angel. But its mystery means taker, judge. “ወናሁ ዔር ቅዱስ” And behold, a holy angel (ዳን፬: ፲).

ዔቦር/ ʾēbōr: (ዕብ ዔቤር) Name of a person; the fifth generation of Shem (ዘፍ፲፩: ፲፬። ሉቃ፫: ፴፭).

Perfect delight, flavor, fragrance, leaf, verdure found in that place. “ወተከለ እግዚ አምላክ ገነተ በዔዴን እምቅድም፤ ወሤሞ ህየ ለአዳም ዘለሐኮ” And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden in the east, and there he put Adam whom he had formed (ዘፍ፪: ፰). Some books say ኤድም ፥ ኤይም/ ʾēdəm, ʾēyəm; it is wrong. See Edom. But the old commentators call it East. East is called the east, but it is not Eden.

: When it is a major and minor conjunction, it functions like the hours. On the day he was born; on the day he was crucified; from the day you eat; from the day he covered his shame. Saying on the day I call you, it functions with the conjunction in the past and future tenses. When it is minor, it functions as in on the day of killing; its meaning does not depart from day and time. ኵሎ/ Kʷəllo ዕለት/ ʾəllät; always, every day, day by day. በዕለቱ/ Bäʾəllätu; on that day, on the same day, at that time, immediately, quickly, before evening or morning. But with God, a day is called a thousand years (መዝ: ፹፱። ፪ጴጥ: ፫: ፰). 500 years is called an equal day. «ይቤሎ መንፈሰ እግዚአብሔር ዘውእቱ ቃል ዘአስተርአዮ በአምሳለ መልአክ» “ለእስክንድር፤ ለእመ በጽሐ ዘመኑ ለዕለትየ በኀሙስ ዕለት ወበመንፈቀ ዕለት እለብስ ሥጋሁ ለአዳም አቡከ በእንተ ዕልወቱ” The Spirit of God, which is the Word that he showed in the likeness of an angel, said to Alexander, If the time of my day has come, on the fifth day and at midday, I will clothe the flesh of your father Adam because of his transgression (ዜና: እስ: ክ፮).

ዕጉትሣር/ ʾəgūtśār: (ዕጉት ሣዕር፤ ሥዕረ) Fiber; rue, a type of rue; bitter, evil leaf that is fragrant and medicinal. It means a bundle of twigs, a circle of leaves. In proverbs, its arrangement is like a person, and its teeth are called sickles. But the book says ዕጉሥት ይላል/ ʾəgūśət instead of ዕጉት/ ʾəgūt, just as it says ቀምሐ/ qämḥa instead of ቀሐመ/ qäḥämä. “በከመ ያማስኖ ዕጕሥታር ለጣዕመ መዓር፤ ከማሁ ያማስኖ ግዕዝ እኩይ ለምግባረ ሠናይ።” As rue spoils the taste of honey; so does evil Geez spoil good deeds. “ደመ ዕጕሥታር ማየ ዕጕሥታር” Blood of rue, water of rue (ፈላስ። መጽ: ምስ። ኤር፳፫: ፲፭። ራእ፰: ፲፩).

ዕግተት/ ʾəggätät: To surround; to be surrounded; surrounding; siege. And when the siege was strong upon them, they went out at night. “ለእመ እእመረ ገብር ዕግተተ በእንተ ሀዪዶተ እግዝእቱ ወኢረድኣ ያውዕይዎ” If a servant knows of a conspiracy against his master and does not report it, they will punish him (ዮሴፍ። ፍ: ነ: ፵፰).

ዕጐል/ ʾəgʷäl: Children; lambs; young animals; chicks; puppies. “ወኀደገ ዕጐሊሁ ውሉደ ንኡሳነ።” And he left his children, young sons. “ይትሐፀኑ ዕጐሊሆሙ።” They will embrace their young. “ከመ ርግብ ምስለ ዕጐሊሃ” Like a dove with her young (መቃ። ኢሳ፲፩: ፯። ፰: ፰).

ዕጐልት/ ʾəgʷält: (ላት) Heifer; grown up; fat. “ካዕቤ ዕጐልት።” Second heifer. “ዕጐልተ ባሳን።” Fattened heifer. “ቅብዐ ዕጐልት።” Heifer of Bashan. “ዕጐላት እምዕጐሎን” Heifers from heifers (ዕብ: ፱: ፲፫። ዘዳ፴፪: ፲፬። ዓሞ፬: ፩። ፩ነገ: ፮: ፯። ደራሲ).

ዕጓለ መሕያዊ/ ʾəgʷalä mäḥəyyāwī: Human; Adamite; earthly; terrestrial. “ፍጥረት ዕጓለ መሕያዊ፤ በከመ ምግባረ መላእክት መንፈሳውያን ይትሌዐል እምግባረ ዕጓለ መሕያውያን” Creation of the earthly man; as the deeds of the spiritual angels surpass the deeds of the earthly men (ፊልክ: ፩ና: ፫).

ዕጓለ መሕያው/ ʾəgʷalä mäḥəyyāw: (ምሕያው) Adam; son of Adam, man. See መሕያውን/ mäḥəyyāw. ዕጓል/ ʾəgʷal child; መ/ mä earth; ሕያው/ ḥəyyāw creator. He whom the living one brought forth from the earth; son of the earth, whose mother is the earth and whose father is the living one. “አዳም ወልደ እግዚአብሔር” Adam, son of God (ሉቃ፫: ፴፰). See the meaning of Adam; it is the same as this. Furthermore, instead of መሕያው/ mäḥəyyāw, it says እመ ሕያው/ ʾəmmä ḥəyyāw; ʾəmm Eve; ʾəgʷal and ḥəyyāw of one kind, man; meaning son of Eve. “እስመ ይእቲ እመ ኵሉ ሕያው” For she was the mother of all living (ዘፍ፫: ፳). If we separate እመʾəmmä for Adam and give ሕያው/ ḥəyyāw to Eve, then Adam becomes the origin of Eve, her mother and begetter; ዕጓለ እመ ሕያው/ ʾəgʷalä ʾəmmä ḥəyyāw; son of Adam; man. All this is fabricated and added by the commentators; its Greek is አንስሮፖስ/ anthrōpos, meaning man; its Hebrew is also Adam, not ዕጓል/ ʾəgʷal; it does not even have one branch, let alone branch after branch. Thirdly, it shortens it to እምሔው/ ʾəmmä ḥēw. ዕጓለ እምሔው/ ʾəgʷalä ʾəmmä ḥēw; son of the daughter of ones father; whose father and grandfather are one; and whose mother is his older sister. A son of the daughter of ones father is like Moab and Ammon; whose mother bore him from her father and called him son and brother, a son who is also a brother (ዘፍ፲፱: ፴፮ –፴፰). Just as Lot begot two sons from both of his daughters and became father and grandfather to his grandchildren; so the Lord, like the two women, first created the two, heaven and earth; then, from heaven he brought forth the heavenly beings, and from earth the earthly beings; for he is like a father and grandfather to his creation; ʾəmmä ḥēw indicates this. For example, a hen is said to be a grandmother to her chicks; and the Lord himself, to show his grandfatherhood in addition to his fatherhood, likened himself to an eagle and a hen (ዘዳ፴፪: ፲፩። ማቴ፳፫: ፴፯).
