ティグリニャ語
There is no general name for the people who speak Tigrinya. In Eritrea, Tigrinya speakers are officially known as the "Bihére-Tigrigna" ("nation of Tigrinya speakers") or Tigrinya people. In Ethiopia, a Tigrayan, that is a native of Tigray, who also speaks the Tigrinya language, is referred to in Tigrinya as "tigrāwāy" (male), "tigrāweytī" (female), "tigrāwōt" or, more commonly, "tegaru" (plural). Bihér roughly means "nation" in the ethnic sense of the word in Tigrinya, Tigre, Amharic and Ge'ez. The Jeberti in Eritrea also speak Tigrinya.
