The information that i read said that in high school kids are taught in English just like kids in america. The difference is, high school is the only place English is really spoken. If you were to go anywhere else you would hear people speaking Amharic. ]]> 2019-02-12 16:36:31 UTC https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/330422063 cables_kimberly https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/330427650 2019-02-12 16:44:36 UTC https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/330427650 cables_kimberly https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/330431754 Most Ethiopia teenagers and young adults speaking English because that is the language they are taught in all throughout high school.  ]]> 2019-02-12 16:50:39 UTC https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/330431754 cables_kimberly https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/330432062 Most men and women working as professionals or in offices wear western-style clothing.

A similar religion we both carry is Christianity. The only difference is the percent of people that practice Christianity. In America 75% of the population practices Christianity while in Ethiopia only 19% of the population practices Christianity.  ]]> 2019-02-18 23:25:29 UTC https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/332485836 cables_kimberly https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/332487293 2019-02-18 23:37:15 UTC https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/332487293 cables_kimberly https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/332487572 1.8% of the population follow a different religion or dont follow one at all. ]]> 2019-02-18 23:39:08 UTC https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/332487572 cables_kimberly https://padlet.com/cables_kimberly/jy0jnbea18vm/wish/332488889 Ethiopians eat two or three daily meals, depending on their income. Breakfast  may include bread, tea, bread broken into pieces and mixed with a sauce, eggs, and milk. The same types of food are eaten for lunch and dinner. In urban areas, families often eat at a table. In rural areas, families often eat while sitting on a bench or in chairs. People may also eat in the living room or on the front porch.

Secondary school begins at age fifteen and lasts four years. Secondary school is broken down into first cycle (grades 9–10) and second cycle (grades 11–12). By law, education is compulsory for seven years, but this law is not widely enforced. Though nearly 90 percent of children enroll in primary school, enrollment rates drop sharply in secondary school.

Painters have since explored various subjects and styles.
