| Sample Text | This manuscript contains notes on Coptic grammar and vocabulary written by Father George Markos, who is from Akhmim in Upper Egypt. It includes lists of common phrases in the Coptic language and their translation into Arabic. It is likely that the author used it as a teaching guide in Coptic classes for beginners. It is similar to the introductory books of Irian Muftah (1826-1886), a prominent teacher of the Coptic language and linguistic reformer, but it also includes verb exercises. The note is missing several pages, and its cover is in poor condition. There are also errors in the spelling of Arabic words in some places. The exact date of the manuscript is unknown, but it was likely composed in the 1870s. Grammar takes up more than half of the note, and at the end there are several pages with English phrases and their Arabic translation. |
