Sidaama or Sidaamu Afoo is an Afro-Asiatic language, belonging to the Highland East Cushitic branch of the Cushitic family. It is spoken in parts of southern Ethiopia by the Sidama people, particularly in the densely populated Sidama Zone. Sidaamu Afoo is the ethnic autonym for the language, while Sidaminya is its name in Amharic. Although it is not known to have any specific dialects, it shares over 64% lexical similarity with Alaba-K'abeena, 62% with Kambaata, and 53% with Hadiyya, all of which are other languages spoken in southwestern Ethiopia. The word order is typically SOV. Sidaama has over 100,000 L2 speakers. The literacy rate for L1 speakers is 1%-5%, while for L2 speakers it is 20%. In terms of its writing, Sidaama used an Ethiopic script up until 1993, from which point forward it has used a Latin script.
The term Sidamo has also been used by some authors to refer to larger groupings of East Cushitic and even Omotic languages. The languages within this Sidamo grouping contain similar, alternating phonological features. The results from a research study conducted in 1968-1969 concerning mutual intelligibility between different Sidamo languages suggests that Sidaama is more closely related to the Gedeo language, which it shares a border with to the south, than other Sidamo languages. According to the Ethnologue, the two languages share a lexical similarity of 60%.

These recordings were originally compiled for proselytizing purposes/ to help in spreading Christianity. I had no part in their production and thank "The Global Recordings Network" for offering them up for free on their website. I'm uploading videos like these of various Cushitic languages so that interested parties may hear what many of them sound like (you may learn some interesting things...).
http://globalrecordings.net/en/program/C37587
I added the images you see in the video and here're their various names and artists:
1. "Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives" by Edward Lear
2. "The Good Samaritan" by Unknown Artist (Help me out)
3. "The Visit of the Queen of Sheba to King Solomon" by Edward Poynter
4. "Interior Of The Mosque Of The Sultan El Ghoree" by David Roberts
5. "Market in Kaloun" by Alberto Rossi
6. "Girardet At The Souk" by Eugene Alexis
7. "La Dance au Harem" by Edouard Richter
8. "Indolence" (not sure if this is the actual title) by Frederick Arthur Bridgman
9. "Christ and Sinner" by Henryk Siemiradzki
10. "Christ and Samaritan" by Henryk Siemiradzki
11. "Christ with Martha and Maryam" by Henryk Siemiradzki
They have little to nothing to do with what's being said in the video, I'm just a fan of the art and decided to share some of it- it adds a nice atmosphere to these videos in my humble opinion.
At any rate; enjoy...
