Me'en (also Mekan, Mie'en, Mieken, Meqan, Men) is a Nilo-Saharan language spoken in Ethiopia by the Me'en people. In recent years, it has been written with the Ge'ez alphabet, but in 2007 a decision was made to use the Latin alphabet. Dialects include Bodi (Podi) and Tishena (Teshina, Teshenna). Me'en is unique among Surmic languages in that it has ejective consonants. Reliable descriptions of some parts of the language have been produced by Hans-Georg Will, often contradicting Conti Rossini's work, the editing of the extensive language notes of a non-linguist.
