Complexities: Not all<br />
<strong>manuscripts</strong> of the Middle<br />
East are exclusively in Arabic<br />
script, even if their language<br />
is sometimes Arabic.<br />
Example: Christian prayer for<br />
after the noon meal. Greek<br />
and Arabic text. Egypt,<br />
possibly 13th century.<br />
Bilingual texts are often in<br />
use when the older of the two<br />
languages has become less<br />
well-known.<br />
