معنی
Describing clear weather.
زمینه فرهنگی
The '13 Months of Sunshine' slogan is a point of national pride. The blue sky is seen as a permanent fixture of the Ethiopian highlands, except during the Kiremt rains. Blue is a sacred color. In church paintings, the sky is often painted with a deep, rich blue to represent the heavens (Semay). With increasing pollution, a 'Semayawi Semay' is now something people specifically comment on when the air is clear enough to see the surrounding mountains. Many Amharic love songs compare the clarity of a lover's eyes or the peace of a relationship to a blue sky.
The '-awi' Rule
Remember that '-awi' turns nouns into adjectives. If you know 'Semay' is sky, 'Semayawi' must be blue.
Not for Sadness
Never use this phrase to say you are sad. Use 'Aznalehu' instead.
