Dirasha, also known as Ghidole, is a member of the Cushitic branch spoken by approximately 65,000 speakers. It is spoken in the Omo region of Ethiopia, in the hills west of Lake Chamo, around the town of Gidole. A number of speakers also use Oromo or Konso. According to Wondwosen, the "Dirasha" is the name of the people, and the name of the language is given variously as "Dirashitata, Dirayta and Diraytata"
