Why was Cleopatra the only one to learn the Egyptian language?

No, that an error. The other Ptolemies more than likely had at least a minimal grasp of the Egyptian language. They were, as Pharaohs, responsible for certain religious services which were conducted in the Egyptian language. Cleopatra was the first Ptolemy to speak the Egyptian language in public.


Why does Cleopatra spend so much time learning the roman language?

Cleopatra learned the Roman language, specifically Latin, to communicate with her Roman contemporaries, build alliances with Roman leaders, and navigate the political intricacies of the Roman Empire, which were crucial for maintaining her power and influence as the ruler of Egypt.


Was Cleopatra the first ptolemic pharaoh to speak the Egyptian language?

It is said that she was the first Ptolemaic pharaoh to speak the Egyptian language. At least she was the first to speak it publicly. It's hard to believe that a dynasty that ruled for close to 300 years would not have learned at least some of the language of their native people. I'm sure that at one time or another one of them would have had to communicate with their army or their slaves. If they were performing the religious rites, which were part of their duties, they would have to say some of the ritual in Egyptian. I prefer to think that Cleopatra was the first Ptolemy to speak the Egyptian language in public.
