意思
A way to apologize to a male.
文化背景
Apologies are often accompanied by a slight bow of the head, showing humility. In fast-paced city life, people often shorten it to just 'ይቅርታ'. The full phrase is preferred as it shows more respect to the person being addressed.
Listen for the ending
Pay attention to the '-ልኝ' suffix; it's the key to the benefactive meaning.
