My one (Ethiopian) coworker who wears a veil brought me back some coffee from Addis Ababa from her last trip to Ethiopia.
So, I wrote her a thank-you card with hieroglyphics, where it says on the front "We should thank God for a generous person, because they sweeten life."
I came up with that proverb-ish thing and I *think* I used the right grammar and vocab - I had to make up a word for "sweeten" - but I figure, it's close enough, and even if there were some (minor) errors, who would see it?
Honestly, learning hieroglyphics has been one of my best life choices ever. Go me!
