Chaha or Cheha (in Chaha and Amharic: ቸሃ čehā or čexā) is a Sebat bet Gurage dialect spoken in central Ethiopia, mainly within the Gurage Zone in the Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Region. It is also spoken by Gurage settlers in Ethiopian cities, especially Addis Ababa. Chaha is known to many phonologists and morphologists for its very complex morphophonology.
