ግእዝ/ gəʾəz [1]: Name of a language; a Semitic, Adamic language, brother of Hebrew; related to Arabic and Syriac. Its letter አ (ʾä) is like saying one, a beginning; its mystery is that it means the ancient Adamic language (ዘፍ፲፩: ፩). Secondly, because it does not require much effort like other languages, they interpret it as straightforward and easy. “ተተርጐመ እምልሳነ ቅብጢ ለዐረብ ወ እምዐረቢ ለግእዝ” It was translated from Coptic to Arabic, and from Arabic to Geez (ሃይ: አበ: ፩).

It is said that among the rivers of Africa, the White Nile and the Blue Nile, which resemble the White Nile and the Blue Nile, are also called Gihon and Pishon in the Torah. And these two brother rivers, rising with force from their respective sources, clothed in majesty, lined up, splitting the lake before them like a ship, leading their armies from the left and right, when they meet in Khartoum like two kings, their duality ceases and they become one river; and from Khartoum they go down to Atbara and meet with the Tekeze.
