Traducción al español europeo de un expediente académico emitido en Etiopía.

Junto a la fecha de nacimiento del titular del expediente aparecen estas siglas, que pienso irán relacionadas con que el calendario etíope va 7 u 8 años atrasado con respecto al occidental.

Calendario gregoriano
Explanation:
http://www.ethiopic.com/calendar/ethiopic.htm

Ethiopia has its own ancient calendar. According to the beliefs of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, God created the world 5500 years before the birth of Christ and it is 1994 years since Jesus was born. Based on this timeline, we are in the year 7494 of the eighth millennium (or ስምንተኛው ሺህ). These are referred to as Amete Alem (ዓመተ ዓለም) in Amharic or "the years of the world". Era of the world dates from 5493 B.C.

The year starts on 11 September in the Gregorian Calendar (G.C.) or on the 12th in (Gregorian) Leap Years. The Coptic Leap Year follows the same rules as the Gregorian so that the extra month always has 6 days in a Gregorian Leap Year.
