Redirected from Ethiopic alphabet
The word Ge'ez is also applied to the syllabary which is used to write the language. Amharic in Ethiopia and Tigrigna in Eritrea use modified forms of the Ge'ez syllabary. Other languages in the Horn of Africa were also historically written using Ge'ez, such as Oromo and Somali[?], but these have generally migrated to Latin-based orthographies.
Ge'ez (or "Ethiopic") has been assigned Unicode codepoints U+1200 – U+137F (decimal 4608–4991).
