Database of Greek Loan Words in Coptic

Database of Greek Loan Words in Coptic

Aims “to produce a systematic, comprehensive and detailed lexicographical compilation and description of Greek loanwords as attested in the entire Coptic corpus throughout all dialects and genres of text.” This project records any instance of any borrowing from another language into Coptic. Attestations of words are displayed, and then one sees an English translation of the word as well as grammatical notes.  This data is then aggregated according to linguistic “type” in lemmata and sublemmatta and shows textual and manuscript sources as well as regional dialects.  It is edited by Tonio Richter.
