DearEhartz01, the word"indigenous" is anthropologically inappropriate, because the majority of Egypt's population didn't recently migrate, outnumbering the original population, like in the Americas and Australasia.--Mahmudmasri (talk)23:38, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Mahmudmasri,

Thank you for your feedback. I don't believe the word "indigenous" necessitates the implication that it is used by a minority, or the presence of a "non-indigenous" majority, or whether that presence is a majority at all. It can simply mean originally from the land where they currently are found, regardless of the presence or non-presence of others. What constitutes "recent" migration is also up for debate. I believe "indigenous" was more appropriate a label than "other," quite literally otherizing the speakers of those languages. The current framing of the article listing them as "minority" languages is perhaps better and more politically neutral.Ehartz01 (talk)22:53, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
