Hareri language
Also known as: Adare language, Adere language
Quick Summary
The Harari language is a Semitic language spoken by the Harari people, who are an ethnic group from eastern Ethiopia. The Harari language is named after the region of Harar in Ethiopia.1
It is important to note that the Harari language is distinct from the Hurrian language. The Hurrian language was spoken from the late 3rd millennium BCE until at least the Hittite empire (around 1400-1190 BCE). Hurrian is not an Indo-European or Semitic language and is believed to have originated from the Armenian mountains.2
