Step 2: Fold the paper so you can only see the first letters. Try to recall and rewrite the rest of the letters to form words from your memory.

This method isn’t limited to single words. You can easily adapt it for longer phrases and even full sentences.

But wait… Are you struggling to read the Amharic script above?
