Wow.
Please repost it if you can.
Ok.
The people who sang speak fluent Coptic,
apperantly the Greek could understand most of it
I found that fascinating
Wow.
Nice.
I think I remember seeing modern Coptic singing once, it's majorly religious.
The pronounciation is on point too.
O Kirios really sounds a lot like Greek.
How do oyu know it's Bohairic, because it's religious use?
You listening to it?
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
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
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
