Servant33, thanks for the confidence. The list has a major problem and you need to know a little Coptic to dicepher the list better. First, there are multiple Coptic words for each word, isi1612 was looking for. Usually, one fits better than the rest. Second, it appears that there is a font issue in the list. Many words are spelled wrong. Either it was inputed wrong or someone coded the webpage with the wrong font.
Here is what I think isi is lookng for.
Run - choji (in Bohairic), peet (in Sahidic). Both are in the link you gave us. But you wouldn't know which is Bohairic from the list.
nose - shai. None of the words on that list are common Coptic words.
mouth - ro. All the other words are not used at all.
hand - jij (Bohairic). chich (Sahidic). You can use tot (B) or toot (S). But not common. All the other words are not used.
blood - esnof flesh - sarx or soma bishop - episkopos salt - hmou lamb - heyeb light - ouwini rod - shbot pitcher - koulol or kelwl or or kelol or keloli or ekloli (all are the same word spelled differently and valid.) You can also use kaji to mean pitcher or bucket. acolyte - diakonos (The definition of acolyte is one who assists the clergy in the altar or liturgical services, like lighting candles.) psalm - psalmos.

Hey Remnkemi,
Thank you very much for this. Would you, please, next time, if he asks for more words, write them in Coptic too so we would be familiar of how they look. Then we can recognize them when we see them and actually start praying with understanding. Thank you very much.
Comments
oil - neh
wood - she
bread - oik
cross - stavros
grape - aloli
human - romi (Coptic), anthropos (Greek. more frequent)
spirit - pnevma
holy - owab
devil - ikh (Coptic), most commonly used Greek words like satanas or diabolos
donkey - eoo
Now these are GB transliterations and all of these nouns need an article (pi, ti, ni, ep, et, nen, ou, han) prefixed to the noun.
Do you know this words also?
run
nose
mouth
hand
and other and other important words?
Remnkemi can vouch ;D
