Natural Language Processing Tools for Coptic and Pre-Coptic Egyptian

Over the past decade, we have witnessed a digital revolution in the development of natural language processing (NLP) tools for low-resource languages, such as Egyptian. In my paper I will provide an overview of the NLP tools that have been developed for each stage of Egyptian. I will also discuss the advantages and risks of using these tools to study Egyptian and Coptic grammar. And I will outline future methods for creating new NLP tools for Coptic and Pre-Coptic Egyptian.
