Please correct me if I've got any spelling or grammar mistakes, I'm a newbie to the Coptic language, but I'm excited to keep learning! (also if anyone can tell me what 'learn' is)

--- End quote ---
It's either ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲧⲓⲙⲟⲑⲉⲟⲥ (literally means "my name is ⲧⲓⲙⲟⲑⲉⲟⲥ") or ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲧⲓⲙⲟⲑⲉⲟⲥ (literally means "I'm ⲧⲓⲙⲟⲑⲉⲟⲥ").


--- Quote ---ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲟⲩⲟⲛϯ ⲛⲙⲏⲧ ϥⲧⲟⲩ ̀ⲛⲣⲟⲙⲡⲓ
--- End quote ---
ⲛ̀ is turned into ⲙ̀ when followed by ⲙ, ⲃ, ⲡ, ⲫ, or ⲯ. So it should be ⲙ̀ⲙⲏⲧ and not ⲛ̀ⲙⲏⲧ.


--- Quote ---Ϯⲙⲉⲓ ⲛϯⲙⲉⲧⲣⲉⲙ̀ⲛⲭⲏⲙⲓ ⲉⲙⲙⲁϣⲱ ⲉⲙⲙⲁϣⲟ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲓⲕⲁϯ ⲉⲣⲟϥ
--- End quote ---
ⲕⲁϯ ⲉⲣⲟϥ should be ⲕⲁϯ ⲉⲣⲟⲥ because it refers to a feminine word (ϯⲙⲉⲧⲣⲉⲙ̀ⲛⲭⲏⲙⲓ).

In Coptic, ⲕⲁϯ is verb "to understand", while ϭⲓⲥⲃⲱ is verb "to learn" from ϭⲓ "to take" and ⲥⲃⲱ "teaching" (i.e. to receive education).

ⲛⲑⲟⲕ ⲟⲩⲣⲉⲙ̀ⲑⲱⲛ?

ⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ,
