Arabic is the official language of Egypt.
Modern Standard Arabic is the official language, but what's actually spoken by most Egyptians in every day life is the Egyptian dialect of colloquial Arabic.

Arabic.
Most Egyptians speak (Egyptian) Arabic, though its not the native language of their country as well as other middle eatsern countries which came as a result of the Arab invasions. Arabic varies widely among Arabic-speaking countries. So refugees from nearby Sudan speak Sudanese Arabic. A minority group in the Sinai peninsula speaks Bedouin Arabic. Other minority languages are Beja, Berber, and Nubian. There also is a minority that speaks Domari, which is related to the Romany language of the gypsies. Egyptians involved in business and education tend to be fluent in English and French. Egyptian Christians know Coptic, the language of their Orthodox Church, the original langauge of Egypt but is only used today in litrugical services (a revival of the langauge is starting to take place with many theologians learning and copts wanting to keep their national identiity to dismiss the effect of the "arabization" process). Many of the immigrant groups within Egypt speak Egyptian Arabic outside the home, Armenian or Greek and Italian inside.
