That’s the words but the recordings are the annual one.
The Kiahk tune I’m talking about is this:

Do you say it in your Church or just the annual tune?
Another question, out of curiosity, who on this forum say it annual and who say it in the Kiahk tune like Mo3allem Fahim?
What I noticed so far:
- Mo3allem Albert from Coptic Heritage said it should be annual
- Anba Raphael does it annual as well
Talking about the Adam intro, I’m currently in Egypt and when I say “ouon oumetcemnos” during the verses of the cymbals, the Mo3allem keeps telling me that there’s a mistake in Coptic Reader, it’s not “pikosmos” but “paikosmos”.
Have you heard abou…
Also, why are you saying that Adam has "Anon kah" while on both Coptic Reader and Tasbeha.org (https://tasbeha.org/hymn_library/index.php?a=view&id=661) it's not mentioned?
Ok, so the Adam difnar from Coptic Reader is wrong, hence the confusion.
Live recordings and books are supposed to be the same, the Mo3allem follows his book.
Regarding my questions, I can't follow the books as the intro for the exposition aren't wr…
Thank you for your answers it's becomming clearer.But I still have a few questions though, you're gonna hate me :(
First exposition
The difnar has on Adam days- Amoini marenouosht- Shere ne Maria- Ouon ouhelpic- Ouon oumetcemnos
Ibrahim Ayad says- A…
I could only find up to the 4th hoos:
I managed to get most of the content from the verses of the cymbals but there's still some unique parts at the end in each exposition that I don't know:
- First exposition: Amoini, Anon kha, then the last part …
Those intro are actually the ones we say during the antiphonary (difnar), one is for Adam days, the other for watos days.
But what I don’t understand is that:
- Ibrahim Ayad doesn’t just say those intro, he adds more parts to them
- And he adds dif…
Ok so some of you say it's part of the annual rite, some not, I'm confused :(
A more general question, what are the sources of our Coptic rites? What I mean by that is how can I get more information on our original rites (all of them) and the differ…
When Ibrahim Ayad went to the US in 2015, he said Tenen during an annual Tasbeha (Coptic Society Tasbeha on youtube). That's why I always thought it was part of the annual rite.
Hi,
I tried the Coptic unicode on Mac Os and it doesn't work great.You can't use the space bar, nor the "command" key to do a select all or copy/paste.
Is this issue known?
Also the "kha" is different:- Tasbeha.org: ϧ- Coptic unicode: ϧ
Do you know …
Hi,
How can I convert a text in unicode coptic font to Avva Shenouda font?I installed Arial Coptic font on my mac, copy and paste a text from this website in MS Word but Word doesn't recognise the font even if the Arial Coptic font is in the list of…
Thank you all for your insightful answers :)
I wish we could all have one version for all Churches. This is always awkward when I lead Liturgies in Churches I'm invited because I never know what they will say. And this "I/we" is just the tip of the …
Hi Ophadece,
Thank you for your answer.
Deacons who think the correct way is "Amen, we believe" say that there was a typo in the Coptic, it shouldn't be ϯⲛⲁϩϯ but teⲛⲁϩϯ.In the same way we say in the institution narrative:- We believe- We believe th…
Thanks both of you for your answers :)
To answer your question mabsoota, I'm not Egyptian at all, but French married to an Egyptian girl, living in Australia.Because my wife and I serve often in upper Egypt (half a year every year), I learned Egypti…
I've noticed that on Tasbeha.org and Coptic Reader, they put the "tanween fatha" sometimes on the silent 3alif and sometimes on the letter before the silent 3alif. Here's some examples:
- ولروحك أيضًا.- والمجد لله دائماً.
What is the proper way to p…
Thank you very much mabsoota.
The word God is well written to me, are you refering to a hamza on top on the 3alif like this: أOn my mac it's shift+B
Or a tild to make it an 3alif maddah like this: آOn my mac it's shift+H
They just show how you say it when there's a Bishop or when there's a Metropolitan but not when there's 2 bishops. Plus the Bishop part and Metropolitan part are not linked, it's stopped, commented, then the second part is played.
What I'm looking f…
There are actually more months than Tobe and Meshir where we don't celebrate the 29th of the Coptic (celebrating the 3 feasts).
It's easier to see when we celebrate it than when we don't: between the first 29th of the Coptic month after the Pentecos…
