Nunu, a language app for Amharic, Tigrinya, and Afaan Oromo
Nunu is a gamified language-learning app built around the Fidel alphabet, native-speaker audio, pronunciation practice, words, and short stories.
Field notes
Nunu organizes study around the Fidel script, presenting letter families with tracing and memory hooks before moving into vocabulary and short stories. Its sample lesson pairs ቡ with the sound “bu” and the word ቡና, or coffee; the mock learner screen also shows streaks, XP, gems, and hearts. The page says pronunciation practice will let learners listen, record, and compare, and that progress will follow an account across devices.
