The first drafts of what would become the Maryan Coptic language were created in June 2017, initially called 'New Coptc' and 'Neo-Egyptian'. Early drafts detailed a modified Latin alphabet as the language's primary writing system, and its phonology more atone with modern-day Greco-Bohairic Coptic. Discontent with the language's current state, the creator redrafted all its core phonology and grammar in May 2019, along with its entire lexicon. | The first drafts of what would become the Maryan Coptic language were created in June 2017, initially called 'New Coptc' and 'Neo-Egyptian'.

==Phonology== | ==Phonology== | ||
Maryan Coptic's phonology bears immense resemblance to [[w:Coptic_language#Bohairic|Bohairic Coptic]], aside from the theory of Bohairic Coptic not retaining long vowels. | |||

===Vowels=== | ===Vowels=== | ||
The exact qualities of Bohairic Coptic's vowels remain unknown. Maryan Coptic's vowels were created largely from personal preference and some basis in [[w:Koine Greek|Koine Greek]] spoken in the 1st Centiry CE. | |||
