To me, It does not matter whether they prefer to speak amharik or tigrigna. Because I know for sure the Tgreans are very proud people. even though, they are Ethiopians, i trully believe they are the most close familly to ERITREANs. they speak the same language as well as they share common culture than anybody in this world of ours. the only differnce that i think is,because of the modern poletics we are two seperate country.
few years back, i use to live in Adua, by the way great city and great people. as any body can tell you great SUWA too. when i was living in Adua, one day i went to ENDA SUWA to chut and to drink SUwa, and a person that i know called me ASHA HAMASIANAY and i gave him a smile and said Hi, and mingle with my freinds. anather persen goes to say, why do we get mad when the ERITREANS call as AGAME but they smile when we call them ASHA HAMASIAN. and eveybody laughed and continued the conversation. the reason i manshend this is, some (TEGREANS) will call as AShA AND some(ERitREAn) will call you agame for genaretions to come. therefore, the best solution is to ignor the words i manshened and concentreat on our simillarities and work together. furthermore, as much as i love Tigray, i want you to accept reality that ther is a country calle ERITREA with its borders and people north of TIGRAY and live with it, work hard, be truthfull and work for better TIGRAY. as i see it your leaders are not truthfull to the people of TGRAY. unless one is living under the dark, your leaders are decieving you. as the saying goes ( MAY GUAGAs NI ADUA YI ATRALEN) KEM THIBAHAL, you know your leaders and dont let full you.
