Archaeologist,
hmm. Does it mean archaeologists working at Egyptian digs have that level of proficiency in Arabic?

(BTW, in case anyone misunderstood me. I never said Arabic is not useful. Obviously, it’s useful for egyptology and elesewhere today. The point I wanted to make was that Arabic is not needed for learning Egyptian. Given the limited time the OP has, he/she would be better served by learning French, German and Egyptian.)
