=== Letters derived from Demotic === In Old Coptic, there were a large number of [[Demotic (Egyptian)|Demotic]] Egyptian characters, including some logograms. This was reduced to seven such characters, used for sounds not covered by the Greek alphabet (plus their modern lowercase forms): {| class="wikitable" |-- ! Hieroglyph ! ! Hieratic ! ! Demotic ! !
