The present study aims to analyze disability-related Amharic proverb messages, their implications, and gender orientation. To do so, a mixed research approach and descriptive survey design were applied. Data were collected through document analysis. The collected data were analyzed using thematic content analysis, frequency counts, and percentages. A total of 49 proverbs were analyzed. The analysis revealed that these analyzed disability-related Amharic proverbs were derogatory. Moreover, the findings showed that through the analysis of 49 proverbs, 11 themes (social, psychological, religious (spiritual), cognitive/perceptual, economical, anatomical, technological, advising, beauty, recruitment, health, and moral implications) have emerged. The analysis of the proverbs also revealed that most of the disability-related proverbs were gendered, while a few were gender-neutral. The overall results imply that disability-related Amharic proverbs have curriculum implications.
