What's the best Amharic text to speech today?

I'm looking for an Amharic text-to-speech service that sounds natural enough for YouTube narration.

​I've tried a few options like elevenlabs,speechify but non of them support amharic.

​If you've used one for videos, which service gave you the best results?

​I'm fine with both paid and free recommendations.

Did you know "Good Morning" in Amharic actually means "How did you spend the night?"

Hey everyone! If you're starting your journey to learn Amharic, standard greetings are the perfect place to begin—but there's a cultural twist you should know.

Unlike the English "Good Morning," which is just a statement about the time of day, the Amharic greeting is a direct question about your well-being during the night. Because of how the language works, the phrase changes based on gender and whether you're addressing a group:

  • To a man: እንደምን አደርክ? (Endet aderk?)
  • To a woman: እንደምን አደርሽ? (Endet adersh?)
  • To a group: እንደምን አደራችሁ? (Endet aderachu?)

Can someone help me translate this?

Hi! I don't speak amharic, but someone I know does. They wrote this to me one time and I can't ask them for the translation. Can someone please help me translate this to english?

"bisimish des yilengal"

"gn alngerishim mechem ewedishalehu"
