Описание
The result of the Ethnography of Communication of a specific group such as those in Wollo, in the context of the multicultural community of Ethiopia, brought interesting insights. Primarily, ethnography as a description of the patterns of communication behavior of a particular speech community contributes to knowledge in its own right. An inquiry into the communication behavior of a group such as the present study adds to the ethnographic record of communication behaviors of the multicultural community of Wollo and fills in the gaps of documentation of culture-specific functions and forms or communication genres. Further, the result of this study will help develop a cross-cultural and cross-linguistic understanding of communication as a culturally distinctive mode of social practice. It will contribute to both theory of communication as well as to the methodology of studying such communicative practices. Rukya Hassen
