Hey Alex,
That is what I'm looking for but I'm having a hard time hearing what they're saying. Sound quality is terrible.
PS. I used to love watching these when I was a kid back home....

Addis Administration finally taking firm measures?

Thats a good effort.

But does the 'hulun aqef tsidat' include cleaning out employees too?

Wekke, now just add a lot of energy and a roaring voice and stir. That's what I'd like. Got that?
This is ok though....I like the gitim though.

lol. I knew I left that opening, but didn't think any one would catch it. Good job.

But it is less Ethiopian to be ye set Muse in the sense that...if Ethiopia has been defined by endless wars for decades and depended on a never ending supply of wend for survival, a normal product of that society should be wend, war-ready, loaded and all. To be anything less than that is abnormal and un-Ethiopian.

Gin, its ok...feri bager sigegn yemejemeriya gizew aydelem. Again, recalling a story of my grand father, during the war, when he turned down an administrative work to stay behind and 'watch over' the gizat (which by the way came with the chance of looting a large amount of public money considering that he was the treasurer of the Awaraja), he refused, saying that "ene ke set gar bet tebaki alhonim!" and run to catch up with the army led by Ras Mekonnen Endalkachew. On his way there, he saw a lot of 'men' (by gender only, obviously) bribing the officials for exemption and going back to their homes. Was that to discourage my granpa? No! Wussies are everywhere. But he has to fight to protect them...not really for them...but for country!

Enam, ayzoachihu...egna eniwagalachihualen, enantem begna dem betelewesew midr lay tinoralachihu.

Am only joking, btw.

Do we have a case where feri le enatu as turned to feri le enate hageru?

Yes.

Those kinds of people are refered to as "ye set Muse".

Some years after my grand father returned from the war against the Italians (he was on the Ogaden front), a man sued him for his Maereg, apparently, whatever that means. So they go in front of this agere-gezji to argue their case. All it took for my grand father to get the case dismissed, apparently, was to say, "degmo...ene tor meda eyalehu, ante ezih ye set Muse alneberk?!"

'Ye set Muse' is the man who carries the Tsiwa when women go to Mahiber, I was told.

nice, I heard set aset before but never that. But never got a conceret confirmation that it is less Ethiopian. thanks.
