@@Yissai_Akkadis bro just look at old kingdom pharaohs . at the same time new kingdom and ptolemy dynasty which is what your probablynreferring to bc scientists were looking at king tuts dna , hyksos tribe rose to power 300 years before that . now i dont think all egyptians were black because they were depicted in all kinds of colors but the true indigenous egyptians were definitely black and shared a lot of relations to the cushites
Egyptian word for desert, “desheret,” certainly sounds like the modern English word. Egyptian word for cat is “miw,” which is meow. Guess cats always speak the same language wherever and whenever they are. Guess we get some of our English words from ancient sources.
pamtnman pamtnman the english alphabet is actually egyptian hieroglyphs... Egypt never died, it evolved into all of the world nations... and English in general has what’s called “double speak” it’s connected to the concept of linguistics/semantics
That doesn´t prove anything, arigatō is Japanese, obrigado is Portuguese, both mean thank you. They are obviously similar. Therefore related? Not at all. There are thousands and thousands of words in each language, so eventually some will sound like others in other languages. Also English is an old language with documents dating back to around 800 AC.
We all pronounce words differently and languages constantly change. Dialects abound throughout. In Egypt the same thing. When did ancient Egyptian die out? People kept speaking it, however possible until Arabic dominated. Population growth changes things, yes, but there were pockets where people still spoke a certain way and borders had a lot to do with languages as well. Perhaps some small amount of people secretly know Egyptian still in parts of Ethiopia or surrounding areas.
Desert comes from the Latin desertum that is derived from the verb deserere that means "to forsake, to leave". It was introduced by the French in the middle ages. Probably the Old English for this word was similar to the frisian woastyn - "waste/wasteland".
Me too here , Egyptian and want learn our original language , I met many Egyptians are perfect in it in Dubai last summer, hope to find a good lessons around
European modern arabs of egypt are just egyptians who was assimilated after the 1300 years arabic rule. Genetically they are real egyptians.. liebe grüsse aus Deutschland !

There are recent movements in Egypt to revive the language and much of our Ancient Egyptian culture. There was already a movement called "Pharaohnism" in the 1930s and the 1940s to revive the language and the culture, but thanks to Nasser's Arabism, many today believe we are "Arabs," just because we speak the language.
Today’s Egyptians are colonists who emerged from the islamic imperialism sweeping out of the Arabian peninsula around 700 ce , and who then settled there. Arabs are pretty much newcomers to the area
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH that made my day, let me know how it went! Cause Egypt bares Macedonian Mythology, the mother of All Mythologies around the world. :)
what defines an "Arab person", if it's not the native language ? In Morocco for instance, those whose 1st language is Arabic are Arabs, but those whose 1st language is a Berber language are called Berbers. Now, what's the 1st language of almost all Egyptians of today ? Afaik it's Arabic. So they are Arabs, even though a part of their ancestors were Egyptians (who spoke Egyptian).
gerald its not the language, It's the genome (your DNA). Morocco is not Arabic at all. The majority of Morroco is of Berberian descent, making them Berberians. That's also why some Morrocans have green or blue eyes. And others may have blond(ish) hair. If they were Arabs that would have been almost impossible
I've studied many different languages around the world and I am now in my late 60s. I disagree with some of the pronunciation. The surrounding African languages during the time of Ancient Egypt gives us a clue how some words were pronounced. As in English having many words borrowed from other languages, so too was Ancient Egyptian to have a similar constructive relationship. I therefore would pronounce a word, such as, "nfr" as "nfer", pronouncing it in a Swahili sort of way. The "n" having the nasal "n" distinct sound of its own. The "fr" sound most likely is similar to the "fr" sound found in the Czech Language. So, no vowels are necessary. You simply pronounce it as written using the sounds of the consonants.
Hello this is a great video. Probably a bit late but I cant find this ANYWHERE. I am making a DND game and have some items that are activated by Ancient Egyptian or Coptic. I am trying to figure out a good phrase to match "Rise in Honor Wepwawet" Or something like that!
The Egyptian language belongs to the Hamito-Semitic/Afro-Asiatic family. Semitic language are a branch of this family, while Egyptian (and its different stages until Coptic) are another branch of tree, next to Semitic languages.
While "timseh" comes indeed from Eg. "meseh", shemes is a Semitic word (Old Babylonian: "shams", the Sun or the Sun God), in Egyptian, "sun" is Râ (the Sun God).
This question is directed towards you Ed and everyone else here in the comment section. I'm trying to find out what is the ancient Egyptian word for "favorite". I'm pretty sure it's "ibib" but I could be wrong. 😕 Please help me with this one. Thanks. 👍🏻😊
as ancient egyptian, berber is also a gender language, the feminine is pronounced with "T" (ta for feminine singular or ti for feminine plural) at the beginning of the word and at the end and masculine with an A only at the beginning of the word which corresponds to the articles "A" and The in english or "le" et "la" in french.
Great video, I'm an archaeology student in Belgium and I currently try to learn te basics of the middle egyptian language to prepare myself for te egyptian lessons I will get next year.
Loved that vid! Hoping for another one about the Egyptian 😁 Btw, I speak Arabic and I was like "wow" when I learned that "timsah" ("crocodile" in Arabic) comes from Egyptian
@@thedorku9500 not really. Arabic "timsah" is brought from Coptic "msah" in when both languages got into more contact in Egypt during the spread of Islam, way ahead from Ancient Egyptian Era. It is important also to note that, although both being Afro-Asiatic languages, Arabic belongs to the Semitic branch while Ancient Egyptian/Coptic developed from a different one, with no mutual intelligibility tô any other.
For pyramid the right word is not MER but Mre, which means big bloc of stone, which is the same word as in berber, we say “ti mre” (ti is the feminine article of English “A”) . Netjer is not netjer but tinjer and the feminine tinjert, which litteraly means graven image Baku is also bkiw( with the article we would say Abkiw) , the “ou” sound in egyptian is the sound “wa” or “ew”, (iw in french) so baku is not baku but bkiw (bkeew) spet and spiwt, here you only hear the word not its article, because ancient egyptian as for berber language, both are consonantal languages, which means the vowels are not written but pronounced only. as for mre (pyramid,( large cut bloc of stone or shaped) we would have spelt it “Ti mre”, they did not spell the article “ta” or “ti” feminine of English “the”, or the “ A” article as in english article a, for masculine . TA means land in both languages berber as ancient egyptian, in berber we have the word ta maz ra (tamazra) which means the land of the RA worshipers, ta land maz worhship, RA the sun. wadjwer, they should have spellen it a djerwiw
Doesn´t that make more sense though? I know they can partially reconstruct New Egyptian based on Coptic, but you would think that they would use different vowels at least for different verb tenses and not just e to make speaking easier.
I read somewhere recently that the English word cat was ultimately derived from Egyptian. But here we have a very different word. Were really two words perhaps with slightly different meanings?
the people of punt which is located in Somalia today spoke a Cushitic language and they traded goods with the Egyptians so maybe there's a connection there.
I keep trying to see if i can come across a word meaning the possesive "mine" What for u ask? Nerdy as heck reasons.... Skeksis....the skeksis spoke their own language in older drafts of the dark crystal as well as a writing system thats been scribbled around but ive yet to see the alphabet straight up RELEASED but a chunk of it is based on ancient egyptian words. So im shocked out of all the lines spoken from old clips THAT didn't make it in.

Hello, I'd like to know something i dont really understand. Since there is no "O" in Acient Egyptian Language i'd like to know how Names like Djoser, Ahmose or Mentuhotep got formed, since ancient Egpytians did not have the letter "O" it would have been more correct if the names were Djeser, Ahmes (Ahmese) and Mentuhetep. I figured maybe the Greeks got something to do with the translation so an "O" started showing up but i just can't find anything about why the "O" was used in translations, even for "Horus" or "Hor", when it should have been "Her". Is there somekind of rule where you put an "O" in translations or whats the whole deal ? Or is the problem that maybe because im from Germany my sources are different from English sources ? That would make sense with the example of Aten or Akhenaten because in german his name is translated to Aton and Echnaton, both with an "O". That would make sense but Names like Amenhotep (Amenophis) still is Amenhotep and does not change regardles if its in german or english ? Maybe you got an Idea. Would be much appreciated if you would contact me via my email.
Colin Kenway Maybe those names came from a later form of the language, because as I understand it, Ancient Egyptian evolved into Coptic, which obviously has an O sound. So it may have been introduced into the language at that stage or much earlier.
@@williamwebb580 That would explain the Translations we got today in some way. I started, when im talking about some one like Amenhotep III to call him Amenhetep, because thats closer to his real Egyptian Name, but of course we don't know if they actually put an "e" between the other letters but thats just what i do personally. But Yeah i haven't thought of this Theory, could explain the translations.
My native language shares the same name for river with the ancient egyptian noun for river itaru ,itaru is boat in my language but interesting enough for the word for water in kikuyu Mai is water in kikuyu and Hebrew .aten is long ago for kikuyu Tene na Tene forever and ever which are egyptian names
If Moses, Jesus and other middle easterners were able to live in and communicate with the Egyptians the two languages must have been similar. Or were many people of the time bi-lingual?
... I'm so glad that I found this but it's the eleventh hour for this question. I am doing a dramatic presentation on Sunday and need to know how to say the phrase; "when the cat is away the mouse/mice will play" in ancient Egyptian? Thanks for your time.
Please blink.

What does taweret mean it’s the name of a goddess and the origin of the word tarot as in the cards?
Are there hieroglyphs of the pyramids
For pyramid
the right word is not MER but Mre, which means big bloc of stone, which is the
same word as in berber, we say “ti mre” (ti is the feminine article of English “A”)
.
Netjer is
not netjer but tinjer and the feminine tinjert, which litteraly means graven
image
Baku is also bkiw( with the article we would
say Abkiw) , the “ou” sound in egyptian is the sound “wa” or “ew”, (iw in french) so baku is not baku but bkiw (bkeew)
spet and
spiwt, here you only hear the word not its article, because ancient egyptian as
for berber language, both are consonantal languages, which means the vowels are
not written but pronounced only. as for mre (pyramid,( large cut bloc of stone
or shaped) we would have spelt it “Ti mre”,
they did not
spell the article “ta” or “ti” feminine of English “the”, or the “ A” article
as in english article a, for masculine .
TA means land in both languages berber as
ancient egyptian, in berber we have the word ta maz ra (tamazra) which means
the land of the RA worshipers, ta land maz worhship, RA the sun.
wadjwer,
they should have spellen it a djerwiw
Do you know if they had words for all the animals that they used as letters? Like Vulture, chick, Lion, etc. Or body parts like Arm & Foot?

I started, when im talking about some one like Amenhotep III to call him Amenhetep, because thats closer to his real Egyptian Name, but of course we don't know if they actually put an "e" between the other letters but thats just what i do personally. But Yeah i haven't thought of this Theory, could explain the translations.

How does anyone know what that language sounded like
If Moses, Jesus and other middle easterners were able to live in and communicate with the Egyptians the two languages must have been similar. Or were many people of the time bi-lingual?
Bi-/trilingualism is the norm in many places on Earth today as well as in the past.
Bilingual.
3:00 - In Hebrew, "Tamar" would mean "date palm" or "palm tree"... interesting to learn that it doubles as a name for Egypt!
