科普特语
语言
科普特语(Coptic language),是晚期阶段的古埃及语,形成于纪元前。纪元伊始,人们开始借鉴希腊字母,创制出了科普特语的子音字母;又照古埃及文的世俗体文字,创制出了母音字母,由此设计完成了一套科普特语字母。公元3世纪,出现大量用科普特语誊抄的希腊文献,尤其是基督教经文。迦克墩公会议后,亚历山大学派反对确立耶稣“一位二性”的信经,与罗马天主教分道扬镳,出现了科普特教派。科普特语言文字在科普特教派的信徒的使用中得到继承发扬。科普特语曾在埃及各地广泛使用,但后来逐渐被埃及阿拉伯语取代。现在,科普特语只在埃及科普特人的教会中使用。

文法
编辑科普特语有主语-动词-宾语词序,但当有正确的前置词在主语之前时可以是动词-主语-宾语词序。数、性、时态和语气都用来自新埃及语的前缀指示。更早期的埃及语阶段通过后缀来完成。一些后缀屈折的痕迹存留于科普特语中,主要用来指示不可转让所有关系和用在一些动词中,比较中古埃及语形式 *satāpafa“he chooses”(在象形文中写为 stp.f)与科普特语 f.sotp ϥⲥⲱⲧⲡ̅“he chooses”。
