Nofri ahoo,
The Pisenty Rizkalla family & all those who are associated with it,
including, Ms.Isy, Hataso, Maurice AbdelMessih, Fr.Pigol Bassili, Abba
Demetrios, Nofer, Vert, Rano, Titi, form a pioneer inspiring effort in
"Revival" probably the the most famous family known for its effort in
the Revival. The family inspired others but, no success has been seen in
other families as they have done.
I wonder if any one of the family members can document the work done to
revive the language, I mean the technicality was it gradual, sudden any
sort of reinforcement done, what maintains the whole thing etc.
On the other hand, we need to know the terminology they used for modern
tehcnology words like: Refrigirator, TV, radio, air condition,
microwave, computer, video, dvd player etc.

Hi there,
Vert is at least third generation Coptic Language speaker. The whole
family speaks Coptic including all uncles & all cousins all over Egypt
and the rest of the world. She is the daughter of our beloved Father
Pigol & his Wife Hataso. Her dialect maybe Bohairy and not the dialect
that the Pharaohs spoke, but hey, she does speak Coptic unlike the
millions of Copts who just keep talking about the subject and not
attempt to speak
in any Dialect. May God bless her family.
Blessings,
Ounas

happy = nofri

fiest = shai
I hope this can help you a bit..
