Egyptian and Aramaic

Answer 2

Moses was born in Egypt and raised up in Pharaoh's palace. Accordingly, I think he was speaking only Egyptian.

Jewish answer

The fact that Moses spoke Hebrew and not only Egyptian is for these reasons:

1) In those days, Israelite custom was to nurse babies for up to four years. Since it was his own mother who nursed him (Exodus 2:8-9), his family had plenty of time to teach him before he was returned to Pharaoh's daughter (Exodus 2:10) to live in the palace.
2) Moses was not a prisoner in the royal palace. He came and went as he pleased (Exodus 2:11 and 2:13) and sought out his people (ibid).
