뜻
It is over or settled
문화적 배경
In Ethiopian markets, verbal agreements are often more important than written ones. Saying 'Negeru alkual' is a binding verbal contract. The phrase is the goal of 'Shimagille' (elder) mediation. Once this is said, the community expects the conflict to vanish. Ethiopians value 'Yilunta.' Bringing up a 'finished' matter is considered very rude and socially unacceptable. In the fast-paced life of the capital, this phrase is used to cut through bureaucracy and long explanations.
The 'Done Deal' Handshake
When you say this in a market, a small nod or a handshake makes it official.
Don't be too blunt
If you say it too fast and walk away, it can seem like you are angry. Use a calm tone for agreements.

자주 묻는 질문
4 질문Yes, you can say 'ፊልሙ አልቋል' (The movie is finished), but 'ነገሩ አልቋል' would imply the plot/conflict of the movie is resolved.
It is neutral. It's not rude, but it is very final. Use it with friends and colleagues freely.
'Aleqe' means something finished on its own. 'Cherese' means a person finished something. 'Negeru alkual' focuses on the situation being over.
No, that would be very disrespectful. Use 'አረፉ' (arefu - rested) for people.
