My landlords invite me over for coffee and I practice Sidamic with them. They also tell me about their daily activities schedules (a participatory community analysis tool, big part of my work these first three months).

A friend of my male landlord's says that Sidamic is easy. I say (in Amharic and Sidamic) that it's easy for him but not for me so I have to learn slowly. LL says (in Amharic and Sidamic) "Lie/false! Sidamic is easy" and he and his friend laugh and shake their heads and repeat the phrase a few times.

See part three.
