When did English become Egypt’s language? Why are the signs in English? Who made them?

The signs are in English because they are meant to be read by us, the Americans. And they are being read by American. It’s one of the benefits of our technological world

No idea who made them, but, unlike Rachel Jantel, I’m sure that a lot of Egyptians can read and speak English.

English is a common second language among the millions of unemployed college grads in Egypt.

I don’t know who printed/made the signs. It probably wasn’t the DNC, ACORN, WHITE HOUSE, or Muslim Brotherhood.

Many Egyptians speak English.
