Wow that is amazing... Much respect from a copt that always wanted to learn coptic... Not cuz I'm Christian but cuz it's my egyptian heritage and I'm amazed and impressed that you took the time to learn it and I hope like you that we in Egypt put importance in learning our language. By the way it's not different at all from the church coptic... I could make out lots of the words from prayers that I know.
I'm learning Sahidic (I'm a very beginner) and just the pronunciation of some letters sound a bit different than what scholars think Sahidic might have been pronounced like. Some scholars on reddit teach us a lot about the different dialects (Bohairic, Akhmimic, Fayyumic, Lycopolitan, and Oxyrhynchite) recorded in the ancient texts and I've heard a couple of villages still speak Coptic in the hinterland in a 'modern' form.
I am Amazigh and I love the ancient Pharaonic Egyptian language, you are a hero, boy And you have to live your native language so that Pharaonic Egypt will become great again. (Peace)
This language is not ancient Egyptian. Coptic is the latest stage of the Egyptian language, but it has a very strong Greek influence, especially in the alphabet.
@@magdyramzy9252 Yes, but some words can be even recognized from the ones written with the hieroglyphs, it's so beautiful that ancient Egyptian words have been so well preserved through the millennia through Coptic. By the way, the oldest form of the latter seems to be Sahidic.
@@joalexsg9741 only the writing system was greekified because the old form was harder and less clear to read. Got to keep in mind most people would not read or write inscriptions or documents without the heads of states and high ranking officials so they changed the alphabet and added a few letters to represent the sounds they were missing
@@dominictoretto9645 I know, and though I try to learn whatever possible of the older scripts (oh my they are so hard;-)), I'm really grateful for the Coptic alphabet cause I'm well acquainted with the Greek letters and this makes Coptic much easier for me. Moreover, Coptic has been crucial in the recovery of the old phases of the language and contrary to what some, many Coptic words are easily recognizable from their consonantal roots in the different phases of ancient Egyptian. Even I who have no trace of Egyptian ancestry (at least not that I know of cause I haven't tested my DNA yet) sometimes get teary-eyed when I think about how precious it is that Coptic has been preserved by the Coptic Christians and the literary works and texts. Being passionate for ancient civilizations and the preservation of all ancient pagan roots and the languages of their followers, I think this is something all lovers of pagan Egypt should always recognize and be grateful for, despite the sad fact that Coptic Christians have also contributed to the spiritual erasure of our pagan brethren in Egypt. At least they (i.e. Coptic Christians) have loved and preserved the language itself, unlike what happened in the long history of the Pan-Arabist Islamic acculturation which started early their process of turning Coptic a linguistic enclave in its own ancestral soil. This Muslim activist for Coptic is but a rare exception and one which has only been made possible due to president Asisi's truly secular attitude in his administration.
@@joalexsg9741 You’re right, being familiar with greek alphabet will only help you read but that’s about it. Other than religious ceremonies you will almost never hear greek words in the language. If you really like studying the language, there’s a village somewhere (I can look up later) in south Egypt that the residents speak coptic as their first language, no other place like it exists.
As an Egyptian language learner (Original Egyptian language before they made the Coptic language) I am really proud of you and your determination of making this video and learning Coptic, it gave me more motivation to learn it too!

I have nothing at all to do with Egypt and Egyptians, (I'm Russian, basically about as far from Egypt as one can be) but I would really love to see the revival of Coptic language. I'd like to learn it myself, I love how it sounds and I think its grammar is very beautiful.
Besides, if Coptic is fully revived, you'll probably have no problem reading it, seeing the Coptic alphabet has so many cognates in Cyrillic. Heck, even Cyrillic's J and SH (Ж и Ш) could be of Coptic origin, from _janja_ and _shai_ (Ϫ ⲕⲁⲓ Ϣ)
@@sapphoenixthefirebird5063 As far as I know Cyrillic and Coptic alphabets don't directly derive from one another, but they have common ancestor in form of Egyptian writing systems. And so do more or less all writing systems of the Old World, i.e. Europe, Western/Central Asia and North Africa (I'm only not sure about China, Indochina and India). Our Cyrillic letter Ш, for instance, was based on Hebrew ש which was in turn based on the same Demotic symbol as Coptic ϣ. While grammatically Coptic is quite different from Hindoeuropean languages, in terms of writing the similarities are great.

American here. I can feel Egypt’s Ancient language simmering beneath the Nile waiting for its words to be repeated on its banks! I appreciate your cordiality. It’s not about a Christian or Muslim divide to speak the common language of the land where those faith groups live.
@@skyler1887 yes, but the point is u were arabized, to the point that u identify as arabs, are in the arab league and speak arabic, albeit egyptian arabic. You are part of the arab nation. Most of you no longer identify as coptic or speak coptic for example
@@ilyasmusa4196 Because being Arab and part of the Arab world technically means having Arabic as an official language. But even if today's Egypt is arabized, it still doesn't explain cultural differences.
Though I tend to be against nationalistic movements, it is incredibly important to understand your history and where you come from and is a tragedy when people forget their ancestors. I support the revitalization of the Coptic language as the language of Egypt.
@@iAntonisX it's probably cuz he mostly sees the word in the context of "white nationalism" so then he generalizes nationalism itself, which really is just being patriotic
I'm just a Pole listening to an Egyptian trying to revive the ancient language of the people of the Nile, those who built the pyramids. I think it's most admirable that you want to revive this heritage. May God bless you.
Coptic was not the Egyptian spoken by those who erected the Pyramids. They spoken Ancient Egyptian. Coptic is the Hellenistic-Late Antique phase of the Egyptian language.
Much love and support from your West African, Nigerian brother! May more and more of you Egyptians speak your native tongue. When I can (very soon), I'm coming over there and doing all in my strength to help with that. This is a personal promise I made to myself years ago. 💞💐💕
@@Mekerino1 I have a question (I admire your work) but you call Black West African "brothers" but they try to steal our culture & history. Are you aware of it? Do you also call Europeans "my European brothers" or do you make an exception for Black Africans because they are in the same continent? North Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa are different subcontinents with different ethnical groups, you know it.
The language is the same as in the church / Christian community in Egypt, different communities or areas might have slightly different pronunciations, but that is normal as all languages have dialects. We Copts kept the language alive, which is why we can even translate demotic, hieratic, or hieroglyphs. I hope all Egyptians speak Egyptian language once again, and I hope Egyptians and the world remember and honor who kept it alive.
In our country, (Philippines) we don't stigmatize people just because some of our people speak a language whose tribe's majority is belongs to the other religion.
Thank you for adding english subtitles! Your are the best! I have a question, How your family reacted to this? Mine always laughs and tells me it's absurd to resurrect a dead language -__-

@@Mekerino1 Salam brother. I subscribed immediately to your channel. I would love to learn this great language. I'm curious what you said at the end that was untranslated?
I recognise the coptic word for Egypt in this video, which sounds like 'kemi'. Nice to see support for the historic native language, which is also similar to the plight of native languages in much of Europe, from Cornish, Breton, Occitan, the list goes on and on.
I really have nothing to do with Egypt but ever since I was little I’ve been invested in ancient Egypt and it’s culture. I recently discovered the Coptic language because I’m a young linguist. I was chocked to see that the language they spoke back then is still alive and I’d really like to learn it one day!
coptic comes from the arabization of the word Aigýptios which is greek for egyptian. All egyptians are coptic ethnically and genetically whether christian or muslim. The percieved diversity among us is due to intermingling which mainly occurred in the big cities not as much in the rural areas but nonetheless the majority of us are direct descendants of the ancient egyptians.
there are teachers who speak it globally I mean even for bohairic coptic (tongue of the church) ask in the church if you live anywhere with access to coptic church..god bless you and keep you strong :)
و الله احييك من المفروض يتم احياء اللغة القبطية في مصر لانها لغة مرتبطة بالتاريخ المصري و الحضارة المصرية و كان من المفر وض الدولة المصرية تستعيين بمختصين و اكاديميين متخصيين في اللغة المصرية القديمة ( القبطية ) لوضع مناهج دراسية و تدريسها في المدارس و اعلانها لغة رسمية نعم رسمية ( لانها لغة الارض و التاريخ و الحضارة ) و هذا لن يلغي العربية نحن في الجزائر تم اعلان الامازيغية لغة رسمية و تدرس في المدارس ( الامر اختياري ) لكن هذا لم يقصي العربية لكن الاهتمام بالتاريخ و الحضارة و اللغة الاصلية هو امر اساسي
I really think that the Egyptians should be able to know the original Egyptian language as well as retaining Arabic due to Cultural reasons as well as Nubian
im an algerian amazigh and i love the coptic language and i love y’all culture and im so happy to see egyptians aware and appreciate their real culture/language
Nothing weird about this, there are many Coptics who are Muslims. In fact, everyone in Egypt was coptic until 640 C.E with the Muslim conquest of Egypt, slowly the Egyptian population converted to Islam and started adopting Arab culture. Around 1000-1500 C.E there were few coptic speakers in Egypt and 1500 C.E almost everyone spoke Arabic and it became the norm as we know as today. But of course, the Coptic language never died out now primarily used for religious services, but I hear now even the Coptic Churches are switching to Arabic like the Arab Christians, you can correct me if I'm wrong about that. What people need to understand is that Arab identity is a cultural identity meaning that it has nothing to do with genetics or DNA or anything like that. It's all about you speaking Arabic and practicing Arabic culture. If we're going to talk about DNA then modern-day Egyptians are essentially Arabized Coptics/Nubians, in fact, the entirety of North Africa and the Levant are not genetically Arab but a mix of different Ethnicities including some Arab DNA. Also Coptic isn't the only ancient Egyptian language, it's just the most common. The Nubian Langues (yes there is more than one) were also spoken in Ancient Egypt as Ancient Egyptians conquered Nubia and Nubians Conquered Ancient Egypt many times throughout history. In fact, many scholars would even say that Nubians and Ancient Egyptians were "indistinguishable" from each other as they shared the same religion, culture, and language. Edit: Yes its the same comment I wrote on Reddit.
I agree with you, Arab identity is just a language and culture, north Africa and many Arab countries speakers aren't Arab! About Coptic, it's a sad situation now, since the church had changed the way of old pronunciación and switched by the modern greek pronunciation, it had created a big pronunciation mistake and a huge deformation of the language sound!! For our Nubian brothers of course Nubia and north Sudan are important parte of ancient Egyptian civilization and culture. Ancient Nubia and north Sudan both knew Coptic language and befor Coptic language they were using the Egyptian language too. But they also had their own language beside.
Coptic is still used in the Coptic Orthodox Church t.co/wLrZtsGNuQ?amp=1 there are Coptic Orthodox churches that still use the Old Bohairic pronunciation of Coptic, this is what Fr Shenouda Maher Teaches “The Old Bohairic pronunciation is used in the Monastery of St. Shenouda in Rochester, New York, in which Father Shenouda Maher now serves.” & most ethnic Copts are members of this church books.google.com/books?id=fOlgDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA138&dq=“ethnic+copts”&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjRqZrOvIfsAhUFd6wKHY2eByEQ6AEwAnoECAIQAQ#v=onepage&q=“ethnic%20copts”&f=false The ancient Egyptian language is written in four different scripts & Coptic is one of those four scripts www.bibalex.org/learnhieroglyphs/lesson/LessonDetails_En.aspx?l=20 Only a minor segment of the Copt population converted to Islam t.co/1Rsr0aZIVl?amp=1 (see page 10 in this study published in the journal of NearEastern studies), most Copts didn’t convert to Islam. Modern average Egyptians(noncopts) are a product of a post 7th century AD ethnogenesis that took place in Egypt & are genetically distinct ethnic Copts, they are not Arabized Copts since the Coptic ancestral component is not predominant among them www.nature.com/articles/srep09996
@@Mekerino1 The new pronunciation is more close to the Bohairic Coptic spoken in the ancient times. The Old Bohairic is an Arabized version of Bohairic Coptic.

@@Mekerino1 You will succeed. Hebrew was modernised and brought back to a living every day language. Why not coptic? It has to be made an obligatory subject in schools alongside arabic. But first teacher training needs to be set up. Sounds overwhelming but actually it's not. Keep going!
Excellent! I studied Egyptology (in Tel-Aviv University). When learning old and middle Egyptian, I wish the scholars had thought us Coptic, instead. Only then, learn the older versions. This way the vowel placements and pronunciation would have been more authentic.

Yes and please stop forcing Coptic Christians to study the Quran stating that its necessary in order to learn Arabic. If so then also start reading to Coptic Christian texts and scriptures because the Christians have contributed a lot to Coptic language and have preserved it and taken it to other places too.

Wow that is amazing... Much respect from a copt that always wanted to learn coptic... Not cuz I'm Christian but cuz it's my egyptian heritage and I'm amazed and impressed that you took the time to learn it and I hope like you that we in Egypt put importance in learning our language.
By the way it's not different at all from the church coptic... I could make out lots of the words from prayers that I know.
I'm learning Sahidic (I'm a very beginner) and just the pronunciation of some letters sound a bit different than what scholars think Sahidic might have been pronounced like. Some scholars on reddit teach us a lot about the different dialects (Bohairic, Akhmimic, Fayyumic, Lycopolitan, and Oxyrhynchite) recorded in the ancient texts and I've heard a couple of villages still speak Coptic in the hinterland in a 'modern' form.
I am Amazigh and I love the ancient Pharaonic Egyptian language, you are a hero, boy And you have to live your native language so that Pharaonic Egypt will become great again. (Peace)
This language is not ancient Egyptian. Coptic is the latest stage of the Egyptian language, but it has a very strong Greek influence, especially in the alphabet.
@@magdyramzy9252 Yes, but some words can be even recognized from the ones written with the hieroglyphs, it's so beautiful that ancient Egyptian words have been so well preserved through the millennia through Coptic. By the way, the oldest form of the latter seems to be Sahidic.
@@joalexsg9741 only the writing system was greekified because the old form was harder and less clear to read. Got to keep in mind most people would not read or write inscriptions or documents without the heads of states and high ranking officials so they changed the alphabet and added a few letters to represent the sounds they were missing
@@dominictoretto9645 I know, and though I try to learn whatever possible of the older scripts (oh my they are so hard;-)), I'm really grateful for the Coptic alphabet cause I'm well acquainted with the Greek letters and this makes Coptic much easier for me.
Moreover, Coptic has been crucial in the recovery of the old phases of the language and contrary to what some, many Coptic words are easily recognizable from their consonantal roots in the different phases of ancient Egyptian.
Even I who have no trace of Egyptian ancestry (at least not that I know of cause I haven't tested my DNA yet) sometimes get teary-eyed when I think about how precious it is that Coptic has been preserved by the Coptic Christians and the literary works and texts.
Being passionate for ancient civilizations and the preservation of all ancient pagan roots and the languages of their followers, I think this is something all lovers of pagan Egypt should always recognize and be grateful for, despite the sad fact that Coptic Christians have also contributed to the spiritual erasure of our pagan brethren in Egypt.
At least they (i.e. Coptic Christians) have loved and preserved the language itself, unlike what happened in the long history of the Pan-Arabist Islamic acculturation which started early their process of turning Coptic a linguistic enclave in its own ancestral soil.
This Muslim activist for Coptic is but a rare exception and one which has only been made possible due to president Asisi's truly secular attitude in his administration.
@@joalexsg9741 You’re right, being familiar with greek alphabet will only help you read but that’s about it. Other than religious ceremonies you will almost never hear greek words in the language.
If you really like studying the language, there’s a village somewhere (I can look up later) in south Egypt that the residents speak coptic as their first language, no other place like it exists.
As an Egyptian language learner (Original Egyptian language before they made the Coptic language) I am really proud of you and your determination of making this video and learning Coptic, it gave me more motivation to learn it too!
It sounds so beautiful! What a wonderful job reviving your identity❤️ greetings from your Amazigh neighbor

I have nothing at all to do with Egypt and Egyptians, (I'm Russian, basically about as far from Egypt as one can be) but I would really love to see the revival of Coptic language. I'd like to learn it myself, I love how it sounds and I think its grammar is very beautiful.
Besides, if Coptic is fully revived, you'll probably have no problem reading it, seeing the Coptic alphabet has so many cognates in Cyrillic. Heck, even Cyrillic's J and SH (Ж и Ш) could be of Coptic origin, from _janja_ and _shai_ (Ϫ ⲕⲁⲓ Ϣ)
@@sapphoenixthefirebird5063 As far as I know Cyrillic and Coptic alphabets don't directly derive from one another, but they have common ancestor in form of Egyptian writing systems. And so do more or less all writing systems of the Old World, i.e. Europe, Western/Central Asia and North Africa (I'm only not sure about China, Indochina and India). Our Cyrillic letter Ш, for instance, was based on Hebrew ש which was in turn based on the same Demotic symbol as Coptic ϣ. While grammatically Coptic is quite different from Hindoeuropean languages, in terms of writing the similarities are great.
@@ambidexter2017 Both Cyrillic and Copt alphabets descends from Greek.

The language is the same as in the church / Christian community in Egypt, different communities or areas might have slightly different pronunciations, but that is normal as all languages have dialects.

I hope all Egyptians speak Egyptian language once again, and I hope Egyptians and the world remember and honor who kept it alive.

I really have nothing to do with Egypt but ever since I was little I’ve been invested in ancient Egypt and it’s culture. I recently discovered the Coptic language because I’m a young linguist. I was chocked to see that the language they spoke back then is still alive and I’d really like to learn it one day!
coptic comes from the arabization of the word Aigýptios which is greek for egyptian. All egyptians are coptic ethnically and genetically whether christian or muslim. The percieved diversity among us is due to intermingling which mainly occurred in the big cities not as much in the rural areas but nonetheless the majority of us are direct descendants of the ancient egyptians.
Much respect to you for trying to bring our Culture back!

Nothing weird about this, there are many Coptics who are Muslims. In fact, everyone in Egypt was coptic until 640 C.E with the Muslim conquest of Egypt, slowly the Egyptian population converted to Islam and started adopting Arab culture. Around 1000-1500 C.E there were few coptic speakers in Egypt and 1500 C.E almost everyone spoke Arabic and it became the norm as we know as today. But of course, the Coptic language never died out now primarily used for religious services, but I hear now even the Coptic Churches are switching to Arabic like the Arab Christians, you can correct me if I'm wrong about that.
What people need to understand is that Arab identity is a cultural identity meaning that it has nothing to do with genetics or DNA or anything like that. It's all about you speaking Arabic and practicing Arabic culture. If we're going to talk about DNA then modern-day Egyptians are essentially Arabized Coptics/Nubians, in fact, the entirety of North Africa and the Levant are not genetically Arab but a mix of different Ethnicities including some Arab DNA.
Also Coptic isn't the only ancient Egyptian language, it's just the most common. The Nubian Langues (yes there is more than one) were also spoken in Ancient Egypt as Ancient Egyptians conquered Nubia and Nubians Conquered Ancient Egypt many times throughout history. In fact, many scholars would even say that Nubians and Ancient Egyptians were "indistinguishable" from each other as they shared the same religion, culture, and language.
Edit: Yes its the same comment I wrote on Reddit.
I agree with you, Arab identity is just a language and culture, north Africa and many Arab countries speakers aren't Arab!
About Coptic, it's a sad situation now, since the church had changed the way of old pronunciación and switched by the modern greek pronunciation, it had created a big pronunciation mistake and a huge deformation of the language sound!!
For our Nubian brothers of course Nubia and north Sudan are important parte of ancient Egyptian civilization and culture.
Ancient Nubia and north Sudan both knew Coptic language and befor Coptic language they were using the Egyptian language too.
But they also had their own language beside.
Coptic is still used in the Coptic Orthodox Church t.co/wLrZtsGNuQ?amp=1 there are Coptic Orthodox churches that still use the Old Bohairic pronunciation of Coptic, this is what Fr Shenouda Maher Teaches “The Old Bohairic pronunciation is used in the Monastery of St. Shenouda in Rochester, New York, in which Father Shenouda Maher now serves.”
& most ethnic Copts are members of this church books.google.com/books?id=fOlgDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA138&dq=“ethnic+copts”&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjRqZrOvIfsAhUFd6wKHY2eByEQ6AEwAnoECAIQAQ#v=onepage&q=“ethnic%20copts”&f=false
The ancient Egyptian language is written in four different scripts & Coptic is one of those four scripts www.bibalex.org/learnhieroglyphs/lesson/LessonDetails_En.aspx?l=20
Only a minor segment of the Copt population converted to Islam t.co/1Rsr0aZIVl?amp=1 (see page 10 in this study published in the journal of NearEastern studies), most Copts didn’t convert to Islam.
Modern average Egyptians(noncopts) are a product of a post 7th century AD ethnogenesis that took place in Egypt & are genetically distinct ethnic Copts, they are not Arabized Copts since the Coptic ancestral component is not predominant among them www.nature.com/articles/srep09996

I am happy to see that Egyptian realize that they were mostly converted to Islam and Arabized, but inside of themselves they are Christian, Egyptian, and speak Coptic.
Loved the video! May Egypt rise up
Inside themselves they are Muslims, What is the relationship of the Coptic language to Christianity? There is no relationship
We are Muslims, but we want to restore our original language
@@sdadljndlnadafasdfdfafd Of course Coptic language is related to Christianity. Coptic Christians depend on Coptic texts and liturgy not Arabic like your people.
Just FYI Christians are not a heterogenous people like you who have a common Arabic language culture that you keep pushing everywhere you go. The Syrian Christians use Syriac Aramaic texts and liturgy in 2 variants Surith and Suryoyo(it is used in places as far as India), the Greeks have their liturgies and texts, the Roman Catholics have Latin and the Ethiopian Christians have Ge'ez. Every ancient Christian community spread across the middle East use their native ancient language and is part of their own sacred traditions.
christianity is even more dumb and backwarded then islam is, they should throw that filth out as well
@@hichamal-maghribi4600 Give us examples of the backwardness of Christianity in this age you lying hole.
Your deep seated fake pride in calling yourself as true is the biggest hypocrisy when we still keep seeing Sharia in your countries and not ours. Your teachers that believes in pushing Sharia politics to this day deserves no respect. Christianity that brought about reformation renaissance in the modern world and your people want to enter those lands because your host nations provide no freedom? What worth do you even have to call yourself an Egyptian when you call yourself the 'Arab' Republic of Egypt. Only the Christians have respected their histories and culture, be it the Egyptian Copts, the Assyrians, Greeks or Armenians.
الله عليك يا معلم 👨🏫 استمر
الف شكر يا معلم، ها نستمر إن شاء الله، و دعمكم مهم لينا 💪
Keep up with this efforts
The Coptic language should be revived and therefore be an official language in egypt alongside arabic.
Love from zambia 🇿🇲❤️🇪🇬

We are proud of you since you trying to revitalize our Egyptian heritage.....keep going.....what you did is a personal effort or through
Some institute
Well done, the Ancient Egyptian, Coptic language!
ϯϣⲉⲡϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲛⲧⲟⲧⲕ ⲡⲁϣⲡⲏⲣ thank you my friend
Greetings from Greece, Egyptian brother!
You have a beautiful intent. Do never give up.
Respect to you Ahmed from a Copt to a Copt. Yes please, spread the word. And educate the world.
All Egyptians are Coptic. All Egyptians from E-GYPT are all Pharaohs, they are the children of the Spirit of Ptah (Ka-Ptah) hence Coptic.
Well done Sir. I respect you.
@@johng5166 😊🙏🙏
I really like how it sounds, I hope you can teach it to other!^_^
Yes as I understand the Coptic church speaks this because when it started this was the language they spoke so they keep the tradition like the Roman church will use Latin and Greek Orthodox will use Greek. It’s beautiful. How do you know so much though
Who else wants to learn this language as I want to?
What a beautiful language! I can hear the latin dialect.
Wowww!!!! Begad amazing ! Ana 3wez at3lem begad
يلا إبدأ مستني اية!😊
فيديوهاتك راءعة و مادتك العلمية رصينة و راقية و لكنني أسأل ما اذا كانت الحضارة الفرعونية و اللغة القبطية القديمة تميل إلى السامية أم الحامية لأنني شعرت بنفس إفريقي حامي في الفيديو أكثر منه نفس سامي فما رأيك أستاذي الكريم
اشكرك جداً، طبعاً إحنا أفارقة بدون شك بحكم الموقع الجغرافي و بحكم التاريخ و اللغة الممتدين من الألف السنين.
Are you fluent in Coptic? Are you able to find other people to speak with? This video was amazing!
ياريت حضرتك تعمل دروس عنها لاني فعلا مهتم بهويتنا
إن شاء الله هانعمل دروس أو ها جيب دروس جاهزة و أنشرها
@@Mekerino1 شكرا لحضرتك
الحمداح تاج جا اکبر you study very well the language I’m shocked
We need our original language back
We are copts not arabs
برافو عليك بجد .. نفسي نرجع لهويتنا الاصليه و نتكلم كلنا لغتنا الاصليه .. مصر مش هتتقدم خطوه لقدام بدون احياء الهويه المصريه و العوده لجذورنا + طبعا العلمانيه . هما دوول روشته العلاج لكل مشاكل مصر
as an imazighen from the rif of northern morocco i find that most words are similiar to berber languages
قبطي مسلم وافتخر 🇪🇬✌️يجب أن نرجع هويتنا وقوميتنا المصرية ولغتنا المصرية
@الناقد العربي نعم
Wow this is really impressive! 😲
I wanted to learn this language, i had memorised the coptic alphabet but my phone did not support it :( i went on to arabic alphabet and cyrillic alphabet, so just learning how to pronounce an alphabet is the easiest part. However, arabic and cyrillic alphabets are commonly used unlike coptic. I think the romanisation of coptic will greatly help increase the amount of learners, learning material of romanised coptic should be made widely available.
كلمه قبط تعني مصري ودي كانت لغه المصرين ولكن لما دخل دين الإسلام مصر جعلوا كل المصريين يتكلموا بها لانها لغه القران. ولو تكلموا باللغه القبطيه سيكون مصيرهم قطع ألسنتهم علشان كده عدد قليل كان بيتكلم اللغه القبطيه في بيوتهم ياريت نبحث ونفتش علشان نعرف أصل هذه اللغه و اللغات الاخري اللي يعرفوا هذه اللغات هم في كليه الاداب . وشكرا
وقت دخول الاسلام مصر كنا نتكلمها و فضلنا نتكلمها بعد الاسلام لمدة ٤٠٠ سنة لحد ما جه خليفة فاطمي لغاها و منع التحدث بيها
حسبي الله و نعم الوكيل
عايز شخص يكون حافظ انشوده أو ترنيمه مصريه قديمه عن الحرب أو النصر يتواصل معايا بعد اذنكم
تسلم على وطنيتك ووعيك 🤍
في قري كتير لسة بتتكلم اللغة ديه في مصر🇪🇬❤
لأ للأسف!
@@Mekerino1 لا موجود و موجودة في الكنايس كمان
Very beautiful language! Are you native speaker, or just trying to revert to your roots?
تحيا الامه القبطيه ✊
لازم نرجع لغتنا الاصليه لغت أجدادنا
It would be great for Ancient Egyptian religion to be practiced by Coptics. That would be cool.
تحية أخوية لابناء عمومتنا القبط أو المصريين ( أمازيغي)
والله برافو عليك ابن كيميت بصحيح. قصدك ايه انك بتتكلم غير الكنايس ؟ يعني انت ما بتستخدمش التاثير اليوناني فالنطق اللي فرضته الكنيسة عاللغة تقريبا من سنة 1850 ؟ لو صح تبقا برنسسس 👍😀
بالظبط، أنا بتكلم قبطي بنطق مختلف تماماً عن المستخدم في كنائس مصر، أنا بنطق القبطي بالطريقة المتوارثة المتواترة من جيل لجيل أيام اللغة ما كانت حية.
@@Mekerino1 ممكن الفيس بوك بتاعك ضرروس
@@Mekerino1 كيف تنطق الكلمات الصوتيه دون الاستعانه بنطق الكنايس؟ حتى شامبليون رجه لنطق الكنائس ليتكلم اللغه القديمه فكيف تنطق دون التاثر بنطق الكنيسه ؟ ارجو التوضيح واتمنى لك التوفيق
@@cheguevara3179 عندك ححق ولكن هو بيتفليف زيادة عن اللزوم
@@cheguevara3179 In Europe it is the same with Latin. The Catholic Church uses a pronunciation that is similar to italian but classic Latin was pronounced different
This is cool cause I wanted to hear the language
