Introduction Language and the people The Mɛ’ɛnɛn language is spoken by the Me’en people. in the SNNPR, south west Ethiopia. It is mainly spoken in three weredas of Bech Maji Zone Me'enit Goldiya, Me'enit Shasha and Gurafarda. Additionally in Shey-Bench, Decha woreda of Keffa Zone and Selamago woreda of South Omo-Zone . According to the 2007 census the number of speakers is about 151,000. Rationale for the Dictionary This school dictionary was developed primarily to help Mɛʼɛnɛn students better manage and understand instruction in English. In addition, this dictionary should provide a spelling reference for Mɛʼɛnɛn students. The dictionary contains 3364 entries. While this is a substantial amount, it is not by any means an exhaustive list. Although this school dictionary should prove to be helpful for many people, the target audience zin developing this book was for children in grade five. There are two main parts to this book. The first half of the dictionary items are listed in the order

English – Mɛʼɛnɛn –.Amharic In this section the user of the dictionary must use the English term to conduct their search. This approach was taken because the target audience for this book is grade 5 children. Grade five instruction and textbooks are in English. As such, students will most likely encounter English words which they have learned in Mɛ‘ɛnɛn classes but have not yet encountered in English. This dictionary is a key tool in providing students with the necessary information to fill this language gap. This section was placed first in this publication because it is anticipated that this will be the greater need for grade five children. It is also recognized that language learning and transfer is a two way process. Students may also have the need to express a concept they know in Mɛʼɛnɛn using the English language. When this occurs it is necessary for the student to have the ability to look the Mɛʼɛnɛn term up in the dictionary to find the English equivalent. The second portion of the dictionary entitled ‘Mɛ‘ɛnɛn – English Finders List’ is designed for this purpose. This list differs from the first section of the dictionary in that Amharic terms and pictures are not included in the list. Following the dictionary and word finders list there is some

iii

additional information provided to give guidance on how to write the Mɛʼɛnɛn language. These sections address spelling, grammar, punctuation and tone. These are included as a reference for beginning and emerging writers. When compared to languages such as English or Amharic, Mɛʼɛnɛn does not have a long written history. As a result, spellings and what word should be used for some terms may cause debate. As this school dictionary is considered a trial edition, debate over such points should be seen as a positive exercise in the further development of the Mɛʼɛnɛn language. Although contents of the dictionary are the result of a collaborative effort and has been checked over by many people, this publication is for a test or trial of the school dictionary. Therefore, should there be a question as to the spelling or use of certain terms used, the reader should keep in mind that this is a trial and revision will need to take place.

Acknowledgements This school dictionary has been made possible through the effort of many people. As the focus for this dictionary is to help grade five children, the initial data for the dictionary was acquired by examining grade five textbooks and syllabi (Art, English, Science, Social Studies, Mathematics, and Physical Education). This preliminary data was collected in English and translated to Amharic by SIL Benishangul-Gumuz. The Mɛʼɛnɛn translation was initially conducted by Gebeyehu Bashame. Following the initial translation, there was tremendous effort to edit and check through the Mɛʼɛnɛn entries.The Mɛʼɛnɛn language editing process was conducted by Tuluwa Amaro, Fajiyo Mekonen, and again through the workshop by Mtiku Tamiru, Moges Yeri, Shalta Taye, Sisay Ganguwɔli, Sintayehu Jems. and Gebeyehu Bashame entered the Mɛʼɛnɛn data into the computer. Since the dictionary contains many technical terms, an Amharic mother tongue speaker was engaged to provide and check the Amharic translation of all dictionary entries. This work was completed by Abebe Yirgashewa & Mestie Mekonen.

The illustrations included in the book are obtained from SIL international. The work of selecting and inserting relevant illustrations was done by Gebeyehu Bashame The technical work of layout and finalizing the publication for print was completed by Andreas Joswig. The section entitled ‘Meʼenen Spelling and Grammar’ was made possible because of the extensive linguistic study conducted by Achim Diehl. Finally this volume has been made possible because of the partnership of The SNNP National Regional State Education Bureau, Culture Bureau and Bench Maji zone Educational department with SIL Bench Maji Project. Without the support, interest and encouragement of these sectors, this dictionary could not be made possible. The completion of this school dictionary is a demonstration of the strength found in cooperative effort. Each contribution has been integral to reaching this achievement. As such, all of the above mentioned parties deserve thanks and credit.

Differences

between

Vowels in English can represent many sounds while in Meʼenen a vowel ONLY represents one sound. a like the a in avocado and Toyota (not like in cake) i like ee in coffee and ea in tea or like i in sit,

x

(not like in ride) e like the e in net and bed (not like in me or region) u like oo in boot and room (not like cut or cute) o like the o in phone or like o in pot The names of the vowels can cause confusion. · In Mɛʻɛnɛn the name of the letter `e` is the same as the sound it makes which is the same as the name of the letter `a` in English. · In Mɛʼɛnɛn the name of the letter `i` is the same as the sound it makes which is the same as the name of the letter `e` in English. sound (glottal) and is inserted between vowels. Mɛʼɛnɛn Spelling and Gramma Pronouns Subject and Object Pronouns Sometimes the grammar of a language affects the way words are spelled. This is true in Mɛʼɛnɛn when we talk about pronouns. Pronouns are words that are used in the place of a noun. The word for pronoun in

xi

Mɛʼɛnɛn is sa. rɔ(sarage rɔngun)and the word for noun in Mɛʼɛnɛn rɔ (Rɔnga). Nouns are words that refer to people and things. In the sentence example below the word ‘edɛ’ is a pronoun and the words ‘Gimage’ are ‘ Pajiyo’ are nouns. Gimage oo Pajiyo hay gabay . ‘Gimage and Pajiyo are going to the market.’ Edɛ hay gaby. ‘They are going to the market.’ There are different types of pronouns. The two main types are what are called personal pronouns (sarage gaynɛy) and possessive pronouns (sarage enɛy). In this section we will only discuss the personal pronouns. Later on you will learn the spelling rules for possessive pronouns. Personal pronouns are used to distinguish between people. They show who does something. There are two main types of personal pronouns. Subject pronouns refer to the subject of the verb and object pronouns refer to the object of the verb. See the example sentences below for further explanation.

xii

SUBJECT PRONOUN Anyi kooy gabay . ‘I going to the market.’ OBJECT PRONOUN Nen hakany anyi. ‘He beat me.’ Mɛʼɛnɛn Spelling Rule:

am

Possessive pronouns are always written as a part of the word it refers to. It is never written as a separate word Body Parts In Mɛʼɛnɛn it is possible to use some of the body part words to help express an idea. Some of the body parts that are used in this way are: tuk (mouth) ribhi (back) Jarec (foot) Kabarec (eye) kuriyec (belly) kʼɔrɔng(neck) Sabɔ (head)

xiii

When they are used a comma separates the speaker and what the speaker says. Example: Kengedí tʼitiydiyanyna, kesene «saanidiya talan kʼorshaa sɛʼɛn?» – CORRECT!!

Mɛʼɛnɛn Tone Mɛʼɛnɛn is a tonal language and has both high and low tones. It is important to mark tones because often the absence of a tone marking can change the meaning of a text. Below are some examples of this. Examples of tone causing a difference of meaning: Difference of Meaning Between Words:

‘ we eat’ ‘marry’ Difference of Meaning in Grammar Verb with an object opposed to verb without an object: Subject marker :
