Hi HN :) it my first time here, On a whim I noticed that there wasn’t a lot of support for the Amharic language, one of the native languages of Ethiopia. Ethiopia has over 100M people that speak Amharic and is the 8th largest country by population, but support Amharic is rare if not non existent in technology, so I built this pipeline to be able to do it, I was able to have a deeper conversation with my Amharic speaking mom and it’s able help her with things that I can never articulate beyond surface level? It feels good to give back to my home country . I would like to know what you guys think and how I should proceed.
