| Not so fast ... ( 2 months ago by squeky11) |
| Not so fast Tigraway. The calender some Eritreans follow is due to religious beliefs. Its origins come from the Coptic Egyptian churches. So don't come here saying Ethiopian calendar, when you have no clue to what you're talking about. |
| We are not the same ... ( 2 months ago by squeky11) |
| We are not the same because Eritrean lowlanders and highlanders come from Pre-Ilsam and Pre-Christian Bejas, while the majority of Tigray people come from Agew and to some extent, Oromo populations. Think of Raya, Azebo & Tembien people of Tigray, you guys are as different from each other culturally as you are to us. The raya, azebo and Tembien were all Oromo people 250 years ago, today, they are considered "tigray people", do to linguistic and cultural assimilation. |

| What are you ... ( 2 months ago by HIHYMAIB) |
| What are you Tigrina,Amhara,Oromo etc... . We are Eritreans, we are not Jesus like your King Haile Zeluse, Where do we invested the name of the Tigrina language? From Tigray Ethiopian or from Tigre Eritrean ? Anyway Tigray Ethiopian and Tigrina Eritrean is like North-Korea and South-Korea ONE EHTNIC CULTRE. |
| Why can't you ... ( 2 months ago by Beat3Two4) |
| Why can't you Tigray just appreciate our separate lineage and different culture?? Why are you SO jealous? Eritrean Tigrinya NEVER was and NEVER will be at all the same with ethiopian tigray---just DEAL with it. |
| and similarities DO ... ( 2 months ago by Beat3Two4) |
| and similarities DO NOT constitute sameness--similarities are inevitable in light of our close proximity--we are similar with so many in the horn, but by no means are we "copying" hah! In fact, WE as ERITREANS have ORIGINAL ownership of Geez, from which came Tigre, from which came ERITREAN Tigrinya. MUCH later, Amharic was developed, and finally Tigray language developed from those to the north of Ethiopia. That is why Tigray speak both tigray language and amharic |
| Beat you're very ... ( 2 months ago by squeky11) |
| Beat you're very right. Even The British historian Henry salt in the early 1800s noticed and noted in his journal that the highlanders of Eritrea are different from the ones in Tigray and Abyssinia. These one time agews and oromos are desperately trying to link their different lineage with ours. Marib river has and always been the border between the independent Kingdom of Midri-Bahri (Eritrea) and with Abyssinia. |
| Tigrinya means " ... ( 2 months ago by squeky11) |
| Tigrinya means "language of the Tigre people". Tigrinya was first discovered in Logosarda, Eritrea in the 13th century AD. The majority of Tigrinya words come from Ge'ez...Ge'ez was created in Matara, Eritrea in the 9th century BC. Tigre, Dahlik and Elit are other Semitic languages in Eritrea that don't descend from Ge'ez. Tigre is believed to descend from an ancient Semitic language spoken in Eritrea 4,000 years ago, which predates both Ge'ez and the Sabaic language in Yemen. |

| Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks for the info brother. U have amazing videos btw! |
| Why are you ... ( 2 months ago by EritreanEthiopian) |
| Why are you belittling Agews ancestry as if it something detestable to be one? Don't you know the Bilen in Eritrea are descendants of Agew? Foolish little kid! As far as you writing bullshit in regards to the origin of Tigrinyas in Eritrea is something laughable. The fact is, the common lowlander Eritrean doesn't see you different than your Tigrayan brothers on the Ethiopian side of the border no matter how you would like to try to distance yourself. Take care! |
