意思
Literally 'my stomach burned', meaning feeling deep anger.
文化背景
The stomach is considered the 'safe' of the body. Keeping things in your stomach (ሆድ ውስጥ መያዝ) is a sign of strength and maturity. In rural Amhara culture, showing explosive anger is often frowned upon. Using 'Hode nedede' allows a person to express intense feeling without necessarily shouting. Young people use 'burning' metaphors frequently in slang to describe being 'salty' or jealous, not just angry. Many songs use the 'burning stomach/innards' imagery to describe the pain of longing or the anger of being forgotten by a lover.
Body Language
When saying this, Ethiopians often place a hand on their upper stomach or chest to emphasize the physical location of the feeling.
Don't overdo it
If you use this for every small problem, you will sound like a very angry person. Save it for things that truly matter.

Intensify with 'በጣም'
Add 'በጣም' (betam - very) before 'ነደደ' to say you are absolutely furious: 'ሆዴ በጣም ነደደ!'
The 'Hod' Philosophy
Remember that 'Hod' is where secrets are kept. Saying 'Hode nedede' is a sign that you are revealing a secret feeling.
