Azeb Amha (Amharic: አዜብ አምሃ, born 1967) is an Ethiopian linguist working on the morphology and syntax of Afroasiatic languages, with a special focus on Omotic languages.

Her thesis, a comprehensive grammar of the Maale language of South-West Ethiopia, was hailed as "an example of descriptive linguistics at its best".

[1] Her broad-ranging work since then has involved research on and audio-visual documentation of the linguistic and cultural heritage of the Oyda, Zargulla and Wolaitta peoples, whose languages belong to the Omotic branch of the Afro-Asiatic language family.

In 2007, her research on language endangerment and audiovisual documentation (with Maarten Mous and Anne-Christie Hellenthal) was one of 7 finalists for the Academische Jaarprijs [2] and in 2016, she was awarded a competitive research grant for a three year project of the Endangered Languages Documentation Project for the linguistic and ethnographic documentation of endangered cultural practices of the Zargulla people in South-West Ethiopia.

[3] Her collection on house construction and farming among the Zargula people is available in the repository of the Endangered Languages Archive.
