I THINK

We'd be classified as Hamites

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

2018-11-16 23:59:54 UTC  

tbh

2018-11-17 00:00:08 UTC  

I hate how Japhetic and Hamitic felt out of use of linguistics, but Semitic is still kept.

2018-11-17 00:00:11 UTC  

Btw why is Greek considered a dead language?

It isn't?

Who considers Greek to be a dead language?

2018-11-17 00:00:38 UTC  

the Ptolemaics

2018-11-17 00:00:41 UTC  

I think he meant Coptic.

2018-11-17 00:00:43 UTC  

Also lmao.

2018-11-17 00:00:48 UTC  

those were pretty much Greek to Egyptian

Ptolomeys were a Greek dynasty, yes

I hate them

2018-11-17 00:01:02 UTC  

the ancient Egyptians they went to war with the Canaanites and Anatolians due to loss of women and support for labor

2018-11-17 00:01:02 UTC  

My textbook actually when they were talking about the US how Latin and Greek were old and useless in schools

2018-11-17 00:01:04 UTC  

@Deleted User Copts in majority speak Misri Arabic, and use Coptic in liturgy.

2018-11-17 00:01:05 UTC  

I think

2018-11-17 00:01:12 UTC  

Sadly.

I fucking HATE the Ptolomeys

They can fuck off

2018-11-17 00:01:17 UTC  

same way the Aztecs and Mayans did before the New World became European

Only Cleopatra spoke Coptic

2018-11-17 00:01:29 UTC  

Yeah props to her for that.

2018-11-17 00:01:36 UTC  

People think that since Greek is old it isn't relevant anymore lmao

No, she was a fucking dumb bitch

She essentially gave an excusew

2018-11-17 00:01:45 UTC  

And people have thought that for a few hundred years apparently

for the Romans to annex Egypt

and claim it as a province

2018-11-17 00:01:54 UTC  

excuse?

she was a dumb fucking bitch

2018-11-17 00:01:59 UTC  

New Kingdom of Egypt was disastrous

2018-11-17 00:02:16 UTC  

the Persians and then the Greeks mass monopolized on area control there

2018-11-17 00:02:30 UTC  

because quite literally the Moses story

2018-11-17 00:02:37 UTC  

that's a conquest for the region of Canaan over Egypt

The Persians would have not been able to take over, had the Greeks not betrayed us. We hired a bunch of Greek mercenaries, which defected to the Persian side.
