According to ethnologue.com, the number of languages listed for Egypt is:

12 languages - 11 living, 1 extinct

(The page provides details for all of these: the largest five living languages listed are forms of Arabic; the extinct language is Coptic, spoken only for liturgical purposes [in the Coptic Church].)

Mostly Arabic. Of course many people speak some English. Coptic is the language of the Coptic church but it is no longer a spoken language I am pretty sure.
