"Our interpreter was wonderful; she assisted with calling multiple Oromo-speaking patients. She was so kind and made sure our patient understood and were able to communicate back."

Afaan Oromo, the language of the Oromo people, belongs to the Cushitic branch of the Afro-Asiatic family and is spoken by millions across Ethiopia, Kenya, and Somalia. Known for its melodic intonation and rich vocabulary, Oromo has evolved through centuries of oral tradition and modern literary contributions. Since the adoption of the Qubee Latin script in the early 1990s, the language has enjoyed greater accessibility and standardization, making it a vital medium of communication in education, media, and everyday life.

Jeenie’s Oromo interpreters are dedicated to bridging language barriers in critical contexts such as healthcare, legal, and community services. Their expertise in the subtle nuances of Oromo dialects and cultural expressions ensures that speakers receive accurate and empathetic interpretation. This not only helps preserve the linguistic heritage of Afaan Oromo but also empowers its speakers to engage confidently in global and local interactions.

Oromo culture is a vibrant tapestry that reflects deep-rooted traditions and a strong connection to the land. Celebrated for its rich oral literature, traditional music, dance, and festivals such as Irreecha—a thanksgiving celebration marking the end of the rainy season—Oromo culture embodies community spirit and resilience. These traditions are a source of pride, passed down through generations, and continue to shape the social and spiritual life of the Oromo people.

At Jeenie, our Oromo interpreters do more than just facilitate language translation; they serve as cultural ambassadors who help share the intricate narratives and customs of the Oromo community. By delivering respectful and culturally sensitive interpretation, Jeenie enables Oromo speakers to access essential services and participate fully in cross-cultural exchanges, ensuring that the unique legacy of Oromo culture is preserved and celebrated worldwide.

How much does Oromo interpreting cost?

Across the industry, Oromo interpreting is typically charged on a per minute rate. With Jeenie, our rates are some of the best in the industry. Your per minute rate will depend on which Jeenie plan you have. See our Pricing page for more details.

Note: Jeenie offers the same rate for Video and Audio-only. Why?
Because we know that video sessions get better outcomes. Video captures non-verbal cues (75% – 93% of most interactions) – making it more efficient and more effective in critical interactions.

Are Oromo translators and Oromo interpreters the same thing?

We get this question a lot.

Oromo interpreters help with spoken interactions. They are present in-the-moment to help people with different languages to communicate (Oromo into English and English into Oromo). Interpreters serve as communication and are experts at cultural nuance. They help to ensure that both parties understand each other.

Oromo translators help with written documents. Translators convert written text into the needed language.

How are Oromo interpreters on Jeenie different from other services?
