Dear @Daniel_Kyrillos,
Staying away from the argument of authentic Bohairic and Greco-Bohairic, your explanation is quite right. It should be /nietchosi/ as there is no jinkim.. Fair enough.. Yes unfortunately many cantors pronounce both based on t…
Dear @Remnkemi,
Why would it be such a misunderstandable approach if we have the kandelion service side by side with the celebration of annunciation? Surely the meaning would not be lost or confused, would it? At the end of the day we have laqqan s…
I agree with @drewhalim. We should have canons and not opinions. I also agree about the feast's importance and why it should be celebrated.
@minatasgeel, it's interesting to point to the description "non-recurring Lordly events"! Why the division i…
Dear @Ken1,
As @minasoliman pointed out it's an Arabic title, not a Coptic name. Sudanese people and other Arabic dialects pronounce the letter qaf as ghain..

Dear @minasoliman and @Remnkemi,
Taio is a Coptic word for gift and it's used in some Sunday schools in Egypt and I also see it used in Newcastle. The Greek counterpart is doron. Dorea is the Greek counterpart of 'hmot which means literally grace b…
Dear @minasoliman and @Remnkemi,
To convert a feminine word into Arabic you simply add taa marboota (closed form of taa), so it'd be alajba, not alajbeya.. Other examples are: aljaketta from the jacket, alkeisa from the case, almanga from the mango…
Dear @Remnkemi,
No, 'mmani 'mmani doesn't convey emphasis through repetition.. It is just an expression meaning day by day, daily or always..

Dear @Bisho82,
You mean khan oumatmai afdonf, not anesty!
Diowro emmai I guess refers to the Virgin in figure of speech, as she is the mother of the King of kings.. And 'nalitenai refers to her being a true queen as she has attained such a title th…
@minatasgeel,
I think that is a mistake. One simple way is to fit the tune on either a long Adam hymn or watos and see what should fit. This is an Adam exposition..

Time constraints of this generation? Why? Ah, because people entering the church don't really feel the presence of God and the heavenly but can't forget the earthly desires and commitments

@minatasgeel,
I thought that was uncannonical.. I thought abakran or the like is only allowed but not even akseya or any glorification hymns! Right?

@minatasgeel,
There is no such a thing as watos AND/OR Adam tune. It's either this or that. Atba bai is borrowed from a Bekhrestos bannoudi for resurrection an Adam tune..

Ekhrestos anesty
I'm afraid I have to leave the main argument and comment on the practice many churches are now resorting to. Dear @minasoliman we are not being active using those projectors to show translations, hazzat, contemplations or any such …
Ekhrestos anesty,
Dear @minasoliman,
How will the congregation learn to pray through singing the melismata, and how long will that take? I hope you are not suggesting that we stop singing meghalo or sad tune dishoria, or indeed baketronos until the…
