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
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
I think
Sadly.
I fucking HATE the Ptolomeys
They can fuck off
same way the Aztecs and Mayans did before the New World became European
Only Cleopatra spoke Coptic
Yeah props to her for that.
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
And people have thought that for a few hundred years apparently
for the Romans to annex Egypt
and claim it as a province
excuse?
she was a dumb fucking bitch
New Kingdom of Egypt was disastrous
the Persians and then the Greeks mass monopolized on area control there
because quite literally the Moses story
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.
