Starting with the month of Tute, this language’s synaxarium assigns one of its many martyr hagiographies to its daily liturgy, where it is read following a reading from Acts. Seven “prayers of the hour” are collected within the Agpeya for use within this language’s liturgy. Shenoute the Great wrote in this language as an abbot at the White Monastery. The Lycopolitan and Sahidic dialects of this language were used to write the Gnostic Nag Hammadi codices. The Gospel of Judas was written in this language. Unlike a related language’s fourteen anaphoras, this language’s liturgies are limited to ones named for Saints Cyril, Gregory, and Basil, which supplanted the Liturgy of St. Mark. For 10 points, Ge’ez shares a parent rite with what Demotic-derived language that names an Egyptian-based Orthodox Church? ■END■
ANSWER: Coptic [accept Bohairic Coptic; accept Coptic Rite; accept Coptic Orthodox Church; prompt on Egyptian until read; reject “Demotic Egyptian” or “Ancient Egyptian”] (Ge’ez and Coptic are both part of the Alexandrian Rite.)
