Preserving & Sharing the Tigrinya Language

Tigrinya Dict is an independent developer project dedicated to building high-quality, offline-first apps for the Tigrinya-speaking community and language learners around the world — from dictionaries and translators to Geez keyboards, quizzes, and note-taking.

Tigrinya — also spelled Tigrigna — is a Semitic language spoken by millions of people in Eritrea and the Tigray region of Ethiopia, and by a large diaspora community across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and beyond. It’s written in the Ge’ez script, known locally as Fidel, one of the oldest writing systems still in everyday use today.

We started this project because good digital tools for Tigrinya were hard to find — most dictionaries and keyboards are built for larger languages first, if they cover Tigrinya at all. Every app in our collection is designed, tested, and maintained specifically with Tigrinya speakers in mind, from the alphabet guide a beginner opens on day one to the keyboard a fluent speaker relies on every day.

All our apps are continuously updated and work without any internet connection — making them perfect companions wherever you are in the world.
