معنی
Shaking of the ground caused by nature.
زمینه فرهنگی
In the highlands, earthquakes are rare but often linked to local legends about the earth being supported by a giant creature that shifts its weight. The Afar people live in one of the most seismically active places on earth. For them, the 'shaking' is a part of life and geography. In the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, earthquakes are mentioned in prayers as 'ርዕደ መሬት' and are seen as signs of the times. With the boom of skyscrapers in Addis Ababa, the phrase is now frequently used in discussions about building codes and safety.
The 'Ye' Rule
Always remember the 'Ye-' prefix. It's the glue that makes the phrase work.
Not for People
If you say 'I have an earthquake,' people will think you are joking about your weight or size!
