Egyptian language, also known as the Ancient Egyptian language, is the language that was spoken in ancient Egypt from around 3200 BCE until the 4th century CE. It is considered to be the earliest recorded language of the Afro-Asiatic language family, which includes languages such as Arabic, Hebrew, and Amharic.
The language was written in hieroglyphs, a system of writing that consisted of pictures and symbols. Hieroglyphics were used mostly for religious and formal texts, with a simpler script called hieratic used for day-to-day writing.
Egyptian had a complex grammar with a variety of verb tenses, noun cases, and gender markers, which made it a challenging language to learn. However, the language was also very versatile and could express a wide range of ideas and concepts.
Over time, Egyptian developed into several different dialects, including Middle Egyptian, Late Egyptian, Demotic, and Coptic. The introduction of Greek and Roman cultures into Egypt also had an influence on the language.
Today, the Egyptian language is considered extinct, though it lives on in Coptic hymns and religious texts. Its legacy can also be seen in modern Arabic, which has borrowed many words and grammatical structures from ancient Egyptian.
