This article offers a brief introduction to the Ethiopic grammatical tradition. It engages in a discussion of selected terms used in the Ethiopic national grammars in the light of reference to and comparison with the Arabic and Copto-Arabic grammars of the late middle ages. Modern linguistic tools are used to analyse the linguistic ramifications of certain grammatical terminologies.
