Bohairic Puns

I know nothing about this, so somebody fill me in.

I take it that the liturgical pronunications more or less "organically" developed/degenerated over the past two thousand years?

Whereas the academic pronunciation is reconstructed? (and is presumably closer to how the language actually would have originally sounded?)

Hi everyone, I am learning Bohairic Coptic with Mr. Sameh Younan's "A Guide to Bohairic Grammar", in which he states that ⲁⲓ\ⲉⲓ\ⲟⲓ\ⲁⲩ should be pronounced respectively e\i\i\av in "words of Greek origin". My question is: are there other possibilities when they appear in words of Egyptian origin? Like in the word ⲥⲛⲁⲩ, is/was ⲁⲩ pronounced /aw/ instead of /av/?

This is a link to a duolingo thread to support making a Coptic course. Please upvote it so we can actually make this happen.

3 weeks ago I started this thread on Duolingo Forums requesting Coptic. Now it has over 1900 upvotes! Please try to tell as many people as possible, we need all the upvotes we could get so duolingo could actually consider this.

Was there a word to describe the writing system ?

Go post NSFW jokes somewhere else. If I can't tell my kids this joke, then it is not a DAD JOKE.

If you feel it's appropriate to share NSFW jokes with your kids, that's on you. But a real, true dad joke should work for anyone's kid.

Mods... If you exist... Please, stop this madness. Rule #6 should simply not allow NSFW or (wtf) NSFL tags. Also, remember that MINORS browse this subreddit too? Why put that in rule #6, then allow NSFW???

Please consider changing rule #6. I love this sub, but the recent influx of NSFW tagged posts that get all the upvotes, just seem wrong when there are good solid DAD jokes being overlooked because of them.

Thank you,

A Dad.

In a Google spreadsheet. It's still very incomplete, especially periodization.

Eras: 1-OK = Old Kingdom, 2-FI = First Intermediate Period, 3-MK = Middle Kingdom, 4-SI = Second Intermediate Period, 5-NK = New Kingdom, 6-TI = Third Intermediate Period, 7-LP = Late Period, 8-GR = Greco-Roman Period, 9-IS = Islamic Period. The + stands for "and after".

Size is either Large, Medium, or Small, which is just a rough estimate on my part. Otherwise numbers represent pages, and (-) if there are considerable lacunae.

Language: OE = Old Egyptian, ME = Middle Egyptian, LE = Late Egyptian, D = Demotic, C = Coptic ([S] = Sahidic, [B] = Bohairic, [L] = Lycopolitan, [F] = Fayumic, [A] = Akhmimic, [M] = Middle Egyptian, [O] = Old Coptic), G = Greek, L = Latin, A = Arabic, I = Hebrew.

Script: g = Hieroglyphic, h = Hieratic, e = enigmatic or cryptographic Hieroglyphs, d = Demotic, c = Coptic and Greek, l = Latin, a = Arabic, i = Hebrew.

Other: X in collections is short for Christian, NHC in manuscripts stands for Nag Hammadi Codices and CBL is Chester-Beatty Library.

If anyone wants me to add something, or if you see any mistakes, please share. I intend to keep this list public for everyone to use.

So far nobody has given me a straight answer

..... Will get a reward.

I believe the correct way to ask this would be “ⲛ̄ⲧⲕⲟⲩⲣⲙ̄ⲧⲱⲛ?” in Sahidic and “ⲛ̀ⲑⲟⲕ ⲟⲩⲣⲉⲙⲑⲱⲛ?” in Bohairic, although I can't actually find these attested anywhere. Anyone know if these are correct?

Well, toucan play at that game.

This is my first post pls don't kill me lol.

The people in the comment section is why I love this subreddit!!

Cred once again my sis wants credit lol

Keep in mind, my son is 4 years old, so everything is an original to him.

I had to work late into the evening yesterday, and he was just going to bed when I got home. I had left home for the office nearly 14 hours prior, had a long day, lots of meetings, traffic, etc.

When I walked through the door, I was exhausted, run down, and starving. My wife hugged me and asked how my day was, and I replied, "Done. It was a good day, but has got me exhausted. I just want to grab a bite and go to bed. I'm hungry."

From my son's bedroom, I hear him shout, "Hi Hungry! Nice to meet you!"

Not only did it make me laugh, but I completely forgot about how hungry and tired I was. I went to his bedroom, and we laughed together about it. It was exactly what I needed.

Edit: Thanks for all the awards, kind strangers! I'll let my son know y'all enjoyed his joke too!

I heard parents named their children lance a lot.
