I would recommend learning to read it as best you can (I can provide you with a good chart that I've used for Amharic transliterations in the past: http://www.omniglot.com/writing/ethiopic.htm), because finding an extensive dictionary that includes Latin transliterations of Amharic words will be very difficult. Now, do you understand how Ge'ez script works? Each letter stands for a combination of a consonant and a vowel, so, for example, one letter might be transliterated as two or three when going from Ge'ez to English, whereas a single English letter could not be transliterated into Ge'ez, only combinations of letters that are compatible with the Amharic form of Ge'ez script.<br><b>References : </b><br> Amharic is actually quite infamous as a very difficult language to read.
