This is a fictional reconstruction.
The Egyptian language is conventionally grouped into six major chronological divisions:
Archaic Egyptian (before 2600 BC), the reconstructed language of the Early Dynastic Period,
Old Egyptian (c. 2600 - 2000 BC), the language of the Old Kingdom,
Middle Egyptian (c. 2000 - 1350 BC), the language of the Middle Kingdom to early New Kingdom) and continuing on as a literary language into the 4th century,
Late Egyptian (c. 1350 - 700 BC), Amarna period to Third Intermediate Period,
Demotic (c. 700 BC - AD 400), the vernacular of the Late Period, Ptolemaic and early Roman Egypt,
Coptic (after c. 200 CE), the vernacular at the time of Christianisation, and liturgical language of Egyptian Christianity.
Some of it were my personal reconstructions.

A shame this language was lost. Has so much heart and soul in it.
The Coptic Church has preserved the closest version of this language. Much like how the Catholic Church preserved Latin (ecclesiastical).
@Văn Không Trần You do realize this language is much older than Latin right?
@Văn Không Trần To your original point, the Egyptians should’ve kept this language because it was unique and beautiful.
You mean death and Satan worship.
And no I'm not a christian.
Thank you for putting ancient egyptian language again. I really fall in love with this language
Same ,😂
Why would anybody like these language. Doesn't sound that good
I agree with you
I wanna learn this
@@abhinavchauhan7864 Because you are not everyone else. It doesn't sound good to you, that doesn't mean it doesn't sound good to others. Common sense.
@@symphony137 that was 2 years ago
I'm so grateful you put this video up again.
I think it was deleted on Ilovealllanguages
If i remember correctly there was a problem with his previous channel. They had to re-uploaded everything.
please never delete this video
Estoy contigo, no lo deben eliminar, esto es alimento para el alma
If i remember correctly there was a problem with his previous channel. They had to re-uploaded everything.
You could screen record it.
is there a long video of pure Egyptian speech? I'm in love.
The closest to that would be to listen to audio of Egyptian religious leaders speaking in Coptic, but Coptic is a much later dialect of the Egyptian language. What the older dialects sounded like we can only make educated guesses about like how one non-Egyptian writing calls the Egyptian god Ra/Re by the name of Ria. Whether this indicates that Ra was a two-syllable word or not, one cannot be sure. There are also Egyptian names that have been transliterated into other contemporary languages like Greek, Akkadian, and Hebrew. There is a Pharaoh by the name of Nekau who is called Necho in the Hebrew Bible, the pronunciation in the Hebrew Bible is not really known for certain before the 10 century AD though, so it could be possible that Nekau may have been called Neku, Neko, or Nekaw in the Hebrew Bible depending on how different Hebrew phonology was that far back.
I looked at the Septuagint which might be closer to the original Egyptian pronunciation, and it spells Necho as Nekhaō, so maybe Nekaw is close to correct pronunciation, especially since early Koine Greek would be close to that pronunciation.
I love ancient Egypt love and greetings from Philippines.
thank you
Same from a fellow pinoy!
Wow, that was amazing. It felt like going back thousands of years.
This makes me feel at peace...feel whole for some reason.
I love to learn ancient Egyptian language. Wish I could speak ancient Egyptian language and visit historical place in Egypt one day
A family member of mine did a DNA test and found our ancestors were a wealthy ancient Egyptian family who moved to Scotland.
Your comment gave me chills… Are you a natural red head? I could be wrong but it is said there was red heads in ancient Egypt. The red heads had/have a spiritual gift (great intuition etc.) that’s why many of them were falsely accused of being evil witches by the church. If I was you I would not stop digging into my ancestry.
@@valeriacortez7003 Yeah, the Ancient Egyptians made it to the moon. But they never came back. Thus we do not know what they saw there.
If you want to see thé real descendents of ancient egyptians just view the afar people of thé horne of Africa.
@@marcelbork92afar and beja
@@yislimfall3047 modern egyptian are direct descendant of ancient egyptian it's just they lost thier languages
Such a beautiful language I really want to learn and visit Egypt
Sadly, modern Egyptian spoke Arabic
@corporatejones9126 there is nothing sad about it. Ancient Egyptian being a dead language makes it even more badass
@@DasyuhanNo it doesn't
@@CommanderLenart why not
For we do not have it anymore.@@Dasyuhan
This is absolutely incredible
This channel does the impossible possible
This is beautiful. Wish I could speak this.
Hopefully they teach the ancient language in all Egyptian schools 🙌🏾❤️
They Will never do so cause they Will end up speaking kushitic language close to somali and afar language.
@@yislimfall3047 that’s sad 😔
Be sure to check the ILoveLanguages version, sounds to be the same folks recording and making it but the room acoustics are much more clear on the newer one. The gentleman speaking seems to have gotten some practice, and between that and the new mic you'll wanna check that out. 8)
Such a beautiful language! Please make more!
Sounds Aramaic at times! Very interesting!
yeah it's related to aramaic in the afro-asiatic language family, although they are fairly distant from each other
Sound afar
@0:15 "karma" < कर्मन्
@0:33 "akashic" < आकाश्- + -ῐκός
@2:51 "mantra" < मन्त्र
are false anachronisms (among others like "god" but I mean those that are not evident from the language being translated to but involve further chains of loanwords).
Christianity has helped to preserve much of this thankfully..
3:01 mistake found
It must be "Watching!" not "Wathing!"
2:30 "pit" is "sky" really funny because it's synonym of "cave" in english.
WONDERFUL ❤❤❤❤
1:34 ... U-eh - "only one"
Sounds similar to:
Yah-weh - the one god.
Which Language______
Interesting indeed.
Yahweh was just one of the ancient gods people worship. He was a storm god that the hebrews adopted
@@KidoFun91
Yah-weh is Hebrew.
Lovely! What a wonderful time we live in.
Insane how her voice is completely different when she's speaking the ancient tongue.
Pharaoh rameses II is the name of the background music used here and it's by derek and brandon fietcher
I enjoy listening to it so much.
Pretty informative, but I wish the speaker would slow down a little, I am trying to match the sound with the phonetic transliteration.
"Karma" is an Indian concept, unbeknownst to the Egyptians.
Yep and the eye we find in lord shid😮 they traded with indus valley civilization.
Beautiful and magical ❤
I found out I have some Egyptian ancestry. And I don’t really know much about the culture or history but I want to learn more about it. That is why I am here haha! 😂😂
how did you found d out?
@@ghassencsetwow DNA test. Apparently my North African roots trace back to Morocco and Coptic Egyptians.
Ahora aparecerán demonios egipcios y las momias empezarán a caminar .
Sounds pretty good
better than modern Egypt
Gave me tingles listening to this.
Where are these texts from? Amazing!!!!
do you have their Thai video? I could have sworn they had one on the old channel
I don't know why but it sounds a little bit like Arabic
There a lot of dumb poeple in the comment section 😂 they don't undrestand ancient egypt is a parent system to arabic script. Wait until they figure out muslim pray like them 😂😮.
Salute!
This applies to all your works that you upload to TH-cam:
How can we Know (for sure) that this is not someones improvisation, suggestion, or assumption... This reading (pronouncing) is based on what school, on what authority? I am hoping this is real stuff, so that I can really enjoy in old sounds of Kemet (there is no Egypt! in history; that is wrong interpreted and pronounced original word...). If not studied as it is needed, the things degenerate and gives idiotic half-truths as results! I really hope this is as close to original as possible! If you are a real enthusiastic straggler, - thank you for your struggle!
You call it "kemet". I believe I saw it being called "ku.mat" in another video so I wouldn't be so concerned.
I don't know if the tiny difference is because you may refer to its pronunciation of certain period of time and the video title to another time period, but I wouldn't be so concerned.
If it's not 100% accurate, seems it got quiet close.
How do you say 38 in ancient Egyptian? Thank you in advance!
So is it related to Arab or Hebrew?
Hi, would love to use some of your work in a video game we are making - how do we go about getting copyright permission?
Hey! This is a deleted video from the channel @ILoveLanguages , so go and comment on their channel! They have a new version of the Ancient Egyptian-Language video! 😊 hope this helped.
I love ancient Egypt but I learn from it.
This kinda feels familiar the sounds

Guys I'm not feeling well after that!!!
More like I lovelanguage version
Why the original channel deleted this?
If i remember correctly there was a problem with his previous channel. They had to re-uploaded everything.
What if we all have to do something with this? It isnt by chance that we all come here maybe we were something like this before this life
Please All Egyptian People Learn And Speak The Egyptian Language The Language Of Youre Ancestors. Not Arabic
I literally imagined it sounding something like this. Arab ring to it, just more pleasant. 👍
There is absolutely no Arabic language influence in this one. The ones with Arabic influence, check out Old Egyptian Language.
@@shiftstart the Arabic have an influence from ancient Egyptian there is similarity in the sound of the words
@@shiftstart they are the same family
The sounds being used here seem like it's being slightly biased to Arabic pronunciation. I wonder if that's true, or it's coincidental?
Biased???do you poeple undrestand that ancient egyptian is a parent system to arabic script 😂 oh yeah and muslim arab pray like them go see how ancient egyptian prays do not let me start with mohammed and his kohl his braids favorite animal cats go look up how cats are seen in islam concidence 😮 !!
How to read that confusing scripts?
Sorry but lots of mistakes there. like the word `body` .
I think I summoned Osiris in my home
Sounds like arabic and somehow intimidating to hear.
Nope its not sound like arabic bro
مافي مصرين هون 🌞؟؟؟
أو عرب 🙂☕؟؟

As a Coptic Christian, I know a lot about Coptic. It is the language of the church. I learned a lot from it to perform prayers in the church. We are interested in this language because it is our language. Muslims in Egypt their ancestors are Arabs are not Egyptians and never will be. I am proud to be a Coptic Christian of Egyptian origin.
An Egyptian is an Egyptian Muslim Christian Buddhist or atheist lmao stfu, I'm as Egyptian as you are and I'm not an Arab, my ancestors are the pharaohs and ancient Egyptians, stop acting like the goat cos your religion is Jesus that doesn't make you more Egyptian than any other, cope with it

Why does that channel keep taking down and reuploading their videos? It's getting annoying.

National Geographic:
“ The masses of locals in Egypt underwent a large scale gradual conversion from Christianity to Islam, accompanied by heavy taxes for those who refused to convert. The Arabs imposed a special tax, known as “Jizya”, for those who didn't want to accept Islam. This is attested to by John of Nikiû, a Coptic bishop who wrote about the conquest, and who was a near contemporary of the events he described. “
23andMe Reference Populations & Regions:
“ Making up over 10% of Egypt’s population, Copts are a Christian minority who share an ancient history with non-Coptic Egyptians that predates the first pharaohs. “
You are a Coptic Pinocchio 🤥🤣❤️

*“ The masses of locals in Egypt underwent a large scale gradual conversion from Christianity to Islam, accompanied by heavy taxes for those who refused to convert. The Arabs imposed a special tax, known as “Jizya”, for those who didn't want to accept Islam. This is attested to by John of Nikiû, a Coptic bishop who wrote about the conquest, and who was a near contemporary of the events he described. The process of Islamization was accompanied by a simultaneous wave of Arabization. These factors resulted in Islam becoming the dominant faith in Egypt between 10th and 12th century, Egyptians acculturating into an Islamic identity and then replacing Coptic and Greek, which were spoken as a result of the Greek and Roman occupation of Egypt, languages with Arabic as their sole vernacular which became the language of the nation by law. “*
According to a 2017 National Geographic dna study, the average Egyptian is 68% North-African, 18% West-Asian and 14% Sub-Saharan African. Not all of that 18% West-Asian is to attribute to the Arab conquest of the 7th century.
“The Northern-African and Western-Asian components in Egypt are representative of that ancient migratory route, as well as later migrations from the Fertile Crescent back into Africa; with the spread of agriculture over the past 10.000 years, and migrations after the seventh century, with the spread of Islam from the Arabian Peninsula.” the study said.
Coptic Pinocchio 🤥
Wait until you find out that “Arab” Muslim Egyptians are just Copts who’s ancestors converted to Islam 💀
Arab egyptian muslim prays like their ancient egyptian 😂 you betray them 😅
