For a long time a "Diachronic Grammar of Egyptian and Coptic" is a desideratum of Egyptology. The wealth of texts and of accessable philological as well as linguistic interpretations enable a detailed diachronic description of the Egyptian and Coptic language. The project aims to amend that situation. Intended as reference grammar for philologist and as innovative contribution for the linguistic analysis of Egyptian and Coptic the outcome of the project aims at a great variety of experts. These will be egyptologist, demoticists, and coptologists on the one hand and linguists on the other hand. The grammer intends to replace existing synchronic grammars of various stages of Egyptian and Coptic in establishing itself as a reference tool for all aspects of Egyptian and Coptic.
