How did Egyptians pronounce the language behind the hieroglyphs?

Become my patron: / nativlang
~ Briefly ~
From Hatshepsut to Nefertiti to a Coptic Abuna, meet the many forms of the long-lived Egyptian language. Watch as they help us listen back to the original sounds of the hieroglyphs. Then, identify a family full of Egyptian's ancestors and relatives, refine those pronunciations and arrive at an outline of Egyptian pronunciation.

As an American of Mexican descent, I had the privilege of working in Egypt for almost 6 years, 2004-2009. I picked up the Egyptian-Arabic dialogue fairly easily. I love this dialect. It is different than Saudi or UAE dialect and I was called out for it when I was in those places. They knew ride away that I was speaking in the Egyptian dialect. Some would call me the Egyptian even though I am Mexican American. I miss Egypt, the people, the culture, and the food. Egypt was magical to me and my family.

@MrsAlexisAgnew2019 3 года назад

IN ALL SERIOUSNESS, THAT WILL BE SO MUCH FOR A FUTURE LINGUIST 😍😍 Shoot, I’m a present-day linguist, and that sounds fun to me! And thank you for that particular suggestion. It’s actually an excellent example of the fluidity of language. How? Consider this: In meme-land, “Yeet!” is the sound one makes when throwing another person in the air à la pitching in baseball. As its use grew outside of meme-land, “yeet” morphed into humorous shorthand for “to throw”. Functioning as an onomatopoeia in this way, it cemented its secondary use as a transitive verb.

I am so very interested in Egyptology, I wanted to be an archaeologist, but my parents said that I would never make any money doing it. So I did what they thought I should and became a nurse. I really didn't want to be one, not because I don't like helping others or helping them heal but because it just took a toll on me and my empathy.

@dopaminedi Год назад

Do what you love, become a archeologist. Money doesn't matter and if you're gonna die in 100 years. Then die doing what you love

@seasonsstarsstudios Год назад

It’s not that you won’t make money as an archaeologist; it’s the stress level to income ratio, or “is the salary worth the stress?” Your parents, while flawed, had a point. I don’t agree with them, however; just because your parents had a point doesn’t mean they were right. Only you can decide what’s right for you. I’m all for chasing your dreams; after all, you have one life to live, and it should be yours. Don’t let your parents decide your fate. A career can change, and so can your life. You can be a nurse any other time. Be what you want to be. If I listened to my family I wouldn’t have had my dream job working from home. I never would’ve published my first novel and working on my second one, either. I’d be a chef - or worse, a nurse, which for me is a fate worse than death. I also would’ve been drowning in student loans just like my mom, and that’s the last thing I want. Sometimes parents want you to be happy; sometimes they want you to have money. My parents were neither, and I didn’t listen - and I couldn’t be happier. Grab your life before it’s too late.

If it's taking a toll on your empathy, it's gonna take a toll on you and your patients.

You deserve a job that fills your cup, rather than drains it

So “Coptic” is The first spoken sound and letter (Ah) + (tic) “tic” is the sound of timing.. So the word seems to say (Sound) + (timing) of language....

Language is a beautiful thing, I live in a small country, Malaysia in a state called Sarawak and people from the peninsular area have a tough time understanding my dialect. Makes me wonder what will happen in 1000 years when linguists try to decipher our dialect.

I live in Egypt and many ancient Egyptian words are still used as well as ancient customs that have been adopted into modern religious and celebratory activities.

@Tian 333 the Spring festival of Sham El Nessim was the forunner of Easter & Passover. Hard boiled eggs, greens & smoked fish translated to the colored eggs for Easter & boiled egg for Passover. The waving of palm fronds led to Palm Sunday & Sukkot. Herbal remedies are abundant & go back centuries. Fenergeek tea is given to women in labor and just after birth. Natural anti-inflammatory & pelvic pain reducer. Margoram tea for reducing fever. Of course the ancient jewelry designs are still popular today. Wine, beer & marshmallows all started here. Bat aao = bread (baguette) bat is wheat; aao is water. Fesikh (fesseek) dried herring eaten at the spring festival.

I'm Coptic. A lot of the words we use now come from Coptic which came from ancient Egyptian. Here are some examples - Table is "trapeza" in Coptic and we refer to it as "tarabeza" in Egypt now - "Outah" is the Coptic word for fruit and how we refer to tomatoes now - "Parkouki" is plum in Coptic which we now refer to as "barkouk" - "Geeb" means "to take" in Coptic which we still use - "Niffi" meaning to blow is still used - "Koi" meaning elbow is still used And a whole bunch more. Plus all of the liturgical words and the majority of Christian Egyptians' names are of Coptic or Greek origin
