OK Remenkimi, so as a brother I ask you to please review how you address other people. Numerous times in the past to show me your point, you kept saying that I compare apples to oranges. Seriously, if anything you should pay attention to what you ar…
-
Dear Remenkimi, I am not sure where I came up with the idea of Greek loan words in this discussion! I cannot see anything I wrote relating to that. Also, please note that archangel is something pronounced /a:keinjel/ and sometimes /a:tsheinjel/ by p…

Dear Mina, There was nothing academic that Aryan did. Would you please read his book (either in Arabic or English) and you would find that Remenkimi is actually defending something completely flawed in his scientific style! Seriously, the topic is m…

Dear remenkimi, so what do linguists say about: appreciation, bow, desert, sexual, negotiation, colonel, lieutenant, Worcester? What are the rules for such words? oujai
-
That's great remenkimi, so we agree that natural language shifts need some collective acceptance of speakers of that language, or to a smaller extent, a dialect.. that wasn't the case with GB however. Oujai
-
No, t isn't always pronounced as /d/; sometimes /t/ too. Pretty much like 'c' in English. Note words like batoc, and ,rictoc. I cannot comment on Arabic, because it isn't my language in the first place. I don't like speaking Arabic, and I am not goi…

Did I acknowledge an error? Then you misunderstood me. The former spells as e;ouab and is pronounced as /atwab/, while the latter spells as at;ouab and is prnounced as /a:twab/. I speak Arabic as my father and mother do. It could be a variant of Cai…
-
No no no... Aryan didn't correct the faults of OB by introducing GB as you claim Remenkimi. He made a mockery of OB, and wanted to change it for the sake of another language, totally different. Indeed, one can argue that he did the reverse; he encou…

I certainly don't understand commissioned or decommissioned but if you want my opinion, it isn't even wise to compare the times. With simple and repetitive posts people may learn more than from complicated and sophisticated science fiction stuff.. o…
-
That tells me you have serious depreciating problems of either yourself, or this forum. I for one have learnt a great great deal from you and other members of this forum. I do apply this knowledge in my church, both Sunday school and hymns discussio…
-
In the feeble attempts to regain an attitude, or even only a way of pronunciation of my forefathers is much more worth the effort than keeping a flawed meaningless system of pronunciation... oujai
-
Thanks Remenkimi.. I'm really sorry to everyone.. it seems you also have been offended but didn't want to upset me.. sorry again oujai
-
OK, so we agree to disagree about all those issues then. Oujai qen `P[C
-
Dear imikhail, Now that you repeated yourself in this manner, you made me feel even more that you meant I was wrong in the beginning. Typing on this forum from my mobile makes it tedious, and I try to use the fewest words possible to convey my meani…
-
But they do state for hymns to be said when and where? Do they state for the hymns to be said "more than once"? I disagree. Indeed what would you say about a bishop who says "beswma nem be'snof nda bemonoganais bannoudi" 4 times? Or a bishop who ad…
-
I didn't want to make it personal towards you only - but seriously I thought you caught the same train like every body else's, you know what I mean? Oujai qen `P[C
-
Dear ShareTheLord, Please don't be surprised if you see this very same argument going on for another ten or fifty years. Unfortunately, not enough people today are humble enough to follow the truth (in my opinion). Therefore, this will keep recurrin…
-
So we should manipulate the church rites to please people? Oh, how can I argue that? At the end of the day, the big motto should follow: rites were made for man, not vice versa. Ah, OK, I see... Oujai qen `P[C
-
I think it should be mentioned. Why not correct people's mistakes if one sees one? Isn't this a Christian forum after all? Or is it a professional one, where there is no place for humility and acceptance of other people's corrections? Oujai qen `P[C
-
Dear Remenkimi, I certainly have no interest in comparing linguists to scientists, or Coptologists to whatever, but all I can say is that there is evidence of authenticity of an "accent" or a "dialect", why should you change it (apart from trying to…
-
Dear Mgabby1234, I cannot quote text, so I will put your comments between inverted comments and express my views underneath: You said: "More valid? How in the world would you define that? Based on whose definition? Why not do this with every other …
-
I'm sorry Mina I seem to have offended you by me trying to correct some mistakes I saw.. I won't do that again oujai
-
Mina, I think a few doxologies for popes would start with bekawarnetais, at least I know of pope Athanasius' Why do people here write the coptic w sound as b? And in Mina's case p?!!! The correct pronunciation is bekawarnetais, and in Greco-bohairic…
-
Intention and innovation? oujai
-
Very well said Aegyptoc.. why don't we remedy the root of the wrongdoing, instead of accepting common widespread wrong? Because we're Orthodox.. oujai
-
I'm awfully sorry drewHalim.. I think I offended you too much.. there's an Arabic saying along the lines of "whoever doesn't know you lacks sense towards you". I believe that's exactly what happened here.. I'm sorry again Oujai
-
What? It's so surprising and strange to see how you'd like to resist any teaching other than Ibrahim Ayad's or Gad's. That's ok, we've all been there until you get more and more experienced and you'll find all of them making mistakes in some things.…

The annual tune is the annual doxology tune, which is what Wagdy has recorded... oujai
-
So we agree to disagree?!!!!!!!!!!!! That's really strange, because any one who understands Coptic hymns (and of course I think you do) will understand no watos tune can be sung on an Adam tune or vice versa!!! Oujai qen `P[C
-
Dear drewHalim, cantor Ibrahim Ayad and cantor Gad are wrong. The hymn structure and consequently the tune cannot be Adam, and therefore cannot be fitted on beweik. As much as I agree with you in not being so impressed by Wagdy, he is right, talking…
