ሀምሌን በብጣሪ ነሀሴን በእንጥርጣሪ
✦
“July with a shred (of cloth), August with a thin cloth.”
Meaning
This proverb refers to the intense rainy season in the Ethiopian calendar (July and August). It suggests that during these months, the rain is so heavy and continuous that one needs only minimal clothing, or that even thin clothing becomes soaked quickly. It describes the severity of the rainy season, implying readiness for the wet conditions.
