Here is what we should do to improve this site.

1. A Dictionary/Lexicon. Start a mini dictionary, preferably in a database format. Each person can add a word, if needed. Or they can request a translation, when someone gets the translation, add it to the dictionary. Each record or entry needs to have a. the root word. b. the tense. c. the article (masculine or feminine or plural). d. verb tense (if it is a verb). e. related words (spelling variants seen throughout Coptic). f. If it is a neologism (in other words, did someone create this word by combining words, since there is no Coptic equivalant).

2. Translation requests. As mentioned above, be diligent about answering request

3. Lessons. Maybe this isn't suitable for a forum, but it should be somewhere.

4. Articles on Coptic. I got plenty of those.

This is a Prefect idea and I can add suggestion to it
u can have a smal pice of software in your computer that connect to the main database so that you can search/add/browse the dictionary without opening a single webpage [but still u can use the oridnary webbased way]
But the only problem is the limitation of this webhosting
it gives me only 2MB database quarter of it already used, but in the futhure [arshan ebnoody wosh ] I will move to  a paid host and begin to do this idea

thank you  and keep posting your good suggestions
and i am sorry for the current limitations of this forum  Cry
