Examples
“በአባባልም አንድ ሰው ለረጅም ጊዜ ጠፍቶ ቆይቶ ድንገት ሲከሰት “ምነው የመስቀል ወፍ ሆንክ” ይባላል። ይህም ለረጅም ጊዜ ሳይታዩ ወይም ጠፍቶ ቆይቶ መታየትን ለማመልከት ማኅበረሰቡ የሚጠቀምበት አባባል ነው።”
In other words, when a person suddenly reappears after being missing for a long time, it is said, "I wish you were a cross bird." This is a term used by the community to indicate that they have not been seen for a long time or have disappeared.
