Emergency care given to an injured person.
خلفية ثقافية
In Ethiopia, the Red Cross (ቀይ መስቀል) is the most respected authority on first aid. Most people associate the phrase directly with their training programs. In areas far from hospitals, 'የመጀመሪያ እርዳታ' often involves traditional herbs like 'Tenadam' before the patient is carried to a clinic. With increasing traffic, first aid awareness is a major part of getting a driver's license in the city. The word 'Erdata' is also used in prayers to ask for God's help, giving the phrase a slightly more profound weight than just a medical term.
Kit vs. Aid
If you want to say 'First Aid Kit', just add 'መስጫ ሳጥን' (mescha satin) at the end.
Don't skip 'Ye-'
Without the 'Ye-' prefix, 'Mejemeriya' is a noun (The beginning). With 'Ye-', it's the adjective (First).
