and well yeah
Boharic is more common
and to my knowledge has more Greek influence
It's funny since Coptic and Greek come from two different language families
^
Coptic comes from Demotic
Yes.
I doubt a Greek could understand Demotic
I thought Copt comes from Afro-Asiatic
Greek comes from Indo-European
Demotic is also Afro-Asiatic
Yes they consider themselves Hamitic.
Or at least Jon.
Copts?
No he doesn't
No?
He doesn't know what he is
Ok, let me be more clear
He thinks he's something different entirely
I THINK
but the thing is, Lower Egyptian Copts and Upper Egyptian Copts are slightly different,
but yeah, i'd consider us to be Hamatic
also, as for Coptic. It's an Afro-Asiatic language.
It comes from Demotic, which comes from Middle Egyptian
I want to learn ancient Greek
tbh
I hate how Japhetic and Hamitic felt out of use of linguistics, but Semitic is still kept.
Btw why is Greek considered a dead language?
It isn't?
Who considers Greek to be a dead language?
the Ptolemaics
I think he meant Coptic.
Also lmao.
those were pretty much Greek to Egyptian
Ptolomeys were a Greek dynasty, yes
I hate them
the ancient Egyptians they went to war with the Canaanites and Anatolians due to loss of women and support for labor
My textbook actually when they were talking about the US how Latin and Greek were old and useless in schools
@Deleted User Copts in majority speak Misri Arabic, and use Coptic in liturgy.
I think
