It would probably be understandable, but sound like an extreme accent. Like a non-native English speaker speaking in English.

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.

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.

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.

“Coptic” Egyptian language... Spoke in phonics... Coptic; Cop = Sounds like (Ah).. Like Abba... The begging.. Ahh.. Like the first letter of the English Language... 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.... Coptic; Sound of the start of the first spoken letter of a language and the timing in which they are said (Ah) + (Tic)....

@NativLang. I don't know if you will see this, but I just wanted to say that as a Copt, I appreciate that you mentioned the role that Egyptians played in the decipherment of hieroglyphs. I feel that most people today make it out to be an entirely European achievement, and many are even unaware of the existence of Coptic and the fact that Ancient Egyptian has a modern descendant that is still in use; a limited use sadly. Hearing you mention it really made my day.

I'm learning egyptian for one of my courses, and I want to say that it's really not that difficult. I'm sure that if you really want to learn it you can !

Thank you for the back story, I didn't know it all. And bro, your french accent is absolutely perfect, I'd swear you are french when you say Champollion 👏👌I'm impressed it's very rare, I know only you and Jodie Foster for having this perfect diction. How many languages did you learn ?

Very interesting information from NativLang. As an "empirical" student of Egyptology and world Languages; lets take the Japanese "Kanlli" for example, and lets say a western linguistic person is trying to decipher what the Kanlli ideograms mean and sound like without any previous knowledge that Kanlli and that traditional Chinese are the same written characters but meaning and pronunciation are different among the two different Chinese and Japanese cultures. Then lets consider that the western phonetics sounds of "R" and "L" are compunded and not very much used in Japanese phonetics. Then the subtle difference in sounds make a difference in meanning, for example the sound "oba-san" meaning aunt or auntie, and "oba-a-san" meaning grandmother. Of course Japanese and Chinese are modern languages; and lots of information about them is known, but lets say there were no previous knowledge of these Japanese language particularities then trying to decipher what Japanese sounds like and characters meaning, would have to be a very interesting investigation; very similar to the information in this video. Another example, in Spanish; the words used to convey the opposite of the meaning of the word: one word that means "a person with lots of hair" is used to describe a "bald" person etc. On the other hand, about the meaning of the spoken words thru time; take American English for example,the common expresion "i have to get" or "im getting hitched" and many other for which the meaning is contextual and changing thru lets say "spoken language evolution". Putting this in contrast all these aspects of language in this video; I find the study of linguistics just fascinating.

THANK YOU!! I have often wondered how we know how these elements were pronounced. I find it interesting that even today, Hebrew is also written without vowels either..

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.

There is a tiny group of people in egypt, who still use ancient coptic (every day egyptian) in religious prayers and curses. There was a team that recorded and taped it as a historical and linguistic project before the largely elderly villagers died, back in the late 1980's to mid 1990's.

As a matter of fact, Coptic is still used widely in all the Coptic Orthodox Church prayers all around Egypt. However, dozens of people only can speak the coptic language fluently among the 10 - 15 millions christians in Egypt! Finally, the Arabic language had been affected with the coptic language as well. Many slang words here are originated from coptic, however, we use it on daily basis without knowing its coptic origin!

Thanks for such an informative and in depth video on Egyptian language. I’m from Southwest Louisiana and mini families. Spoke French originally and had to learn English to go to school. Often they didn’t annunciate either language very well, and it was difficult to understand them speaking English, because they didn’t annunciate well and their grammar was off. Having the advantage of going to 12 years of private Catholic school for overprivileged children and 23 semesters of college along with Jesuit priest as tutors (Jesuits are the most extensively educated of all priesthoods) I know how to speak and write grammatically correct English. It is irritating to hear it spoken incorrectly and in my head I mentally correct the person speaking so often I loose the information being presented.

The pronounciation of Egyptian is lost. We have no idea how they spoke. Not even a single word.

I've enjoyed this presentation several times over. My Coptic studies were at UCLA, in grad. school, with my tutor, Antonio Loprieno from the Turin Museum and John Callender from U. Chicago. I got a kick from reading along with you. Coptic was the most difficult language I have ever learned, but, Loprieno broke down the various earlier sounds and, especially, grammar and then, I GOT IT ! One thing I did with 18th dynasty Egyptian was to go back over the "Amarna Texts" in translation by several of the visiting scholars I've met. I readily recall saying "I-yat-ii" for "Aten". The cuneiform translations opened my eyes considerably. Last night I was rereading the various Kings' lists and I returned to Manetho. So many errors but so many attempts to get things right. It's fascinating to see how several scholars over time reconstructed the "erased" Pharaohs from the Amarna period. It's great, isn't it! Looking forward to watching this again and others by you.

@@colorfulaura105 umm no & yes, Egypt was a very diverse place. There lots of drawings of dark skin folk, light skin folk, white folk etc etc in old Egyptian writing.

Very interesting though technical and just amazing how much one would research, and able to research deeply!👍

IMO, I think the the discovery and translation of the Rosetta Stone is the greatest linguistic achievement in Human History. My favorite part of Ancient Egypt is how prolific their Scribes were, literally covering whole structures from floor to ceiling.

They legit spoke in enchantment table. Not even trying to joke.

my gosh, I was watching this during dinner and completely forgot about my food, it was sooo interesting! I had a (long) phase during my childhood through young adulthood where I would read and watch everything about Ancient Egypt that i could get my hands on, and one thing I was always puzzled by was/is exactly this, how do we know what Ancient Egyptian actually sounded like. Thank you so much for this, it answered my question as well as it probably could, my inner child me is rejoicing ^^ Edit: I immediately watched the video again because this is just so cool to me still. Also, now I really could appreciate the writing of the video, truly well done!!

I read a similar book as a kid also one, one with a big red fake jewel on the center of the book. "Egyptology" and I just figured that it sounded like subtitles were on the bottom of the screen with a glitchy sound accompanying them.

Indeed, I find it fascinating the idea of being able to read hieroglyphs, and it's not because they're visually striking (although that helps), but rather because they're so old and not fully understood that they acquired a certain mystique around them!

Coptic writing is most close to Cyrillic. Letters style and Ш is present. As far as I remember they have a word ГРОШ, which looks the same like "small money unit" in Slavic, and in Ukrainian ГРОШI = "money"

Hey there Nativ, greetings from Germany! I don´t even know, if you will ever read this, but i wanna tell you a story: Back, when I was a student, really young, like 11 years old, the Lord of the rings films came into cinemas, and I got addicted! A few years later i choose latin as my second language to learn. And I got also addicted! I loved it! I soaked up every bit of lore we translated! Things got even greater, when I found more LotR people around school. We founded an elvish learning group for ourselves. And this was the first time, i really got into history of langauges and pronounciation! When my school ended, it all drifted apart... But then, YEARS later youtube points me right towards your youtube channel, making me feel like I have come home! Thank you very much!

If you are interested in ancient language, there's a scientific paper called Tracing The Script And The Language Of The Ancient Macedonians PDF which is available for free download, this paper is about the decipher of the middle text of the Rosetta Stone which is believed to be Egyptian Demotic but this is incorrect... It's 190Bc and the ancient Slavic Macedonians are using vowels and consonants. Pretty advanced for their time, the same Sanskrit text has also been found in Kokino Macedonia carved into stone and dated to around 6000Bc by French linguistic experts! Pretty amazing stuff! Great story by the way ☺️

@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
