Good night, sweet prince.

Isnt it still alife as a church language for the christian egyptians?

>>1319049
Yes
They're ~10% of the Egyptian population

That's funny, I just happened to be reading about the coptic language before stumbling upon this thread.

All written languages on this planet will die in use someday, replaced by more efficient/superior languages.

While YOU speak COPTIC, CHADIC is being spoken in MULTIPLE COUNTRIES.

It's only the language of the church, like Latin for Catholics.

I personally believe it's more tragic, though, because it died relatively recently (c. 17th century) to be replaced with Egyptian Arabic.

The real factor is influence and convenience m8.
