Dear Denise,
The difference between Egyptian language & Coptic language is vast,
because of many factors yet, Coptic is still the descendant of ancient
Egyptian languages. To make things a bit closer comparing Coptic to
Egyptian is more different than comparing contemporary Italian to Latin.
As regards colours, the two colours mentioned in the URL are
Red: in Coptic etrashroash or adrashroash
Black: Kami
