So how does a person come to that conclusion? Take the "bread" for instance a half sphere could represent anything so whats the process for deciphering such?

    Ever heard of the Rosetta Stone? It’s a stone with the same passage written in two forms of Egyptian (hieroglyphic and demotic) as well as Greek. The Greek passage acts as a key for the Egyptian and is what allowed us to decipher hieroglyphics. As a result we’re pretty damn confident in what hieroglyphics say and how they work to the point that modern scholars have found mistakes in ancient works that we are certain are mistakes and not a failure of modern translation.

    @@LasVegasVet there’s a lot of documentation about it given how crucial it is to our understanding of ancient Egypt as a whole. The tablet itself is in the British Museum so they’ve got a lot of information published about it probably a good place to go for more info. I’m not quite sure which scrolls you’re referring to, theres the scrolls from Pompeii they’ve been unrolling with the help of AI, there’s the Book Of The Dead scrolls they revealed in Cairo not too long ago. Lots of cool stuff in the archeological departments of the world going on right now!

    For those wondering: Originally, brother was pronounced "San", and sister was "Sana(t)", with the stress on the first syllable. In comptic, they become Son and Sone, with the latter having a longer o than the former.

    It's not a semantic determinative, the "breadloaf" just indicates a T sound, which happens to be the feminine suffix.

    The vulture makes a franco-german R (or arabic GH) in early and middle egyptian, but is unvoiced in later egyptian, only denoting a long A sound after it. Thus, Mrndᴣ could be vowelised as Marindᴣā, which in late egyptian would be pronounced [mæɾɪnt'ɑː] which sounds very close to the standard english pronunciation [mə'lɪndə]

    En este caso, como explica el profesor Josep Cervelló, la serpiente cornuda representa el biconsonántico "it" tal como se usaba en el egipcio del reino antiguo y que, de alguna manera, quedó fosilizado en esta única palabra, a pesar de que en el egipcio clásico del reino medio ya no se usara para este biconsonántico.

    Hmmm, always thought that -ic words are adjectives. Like "poetic", "Arabic", "sonic". A writing can be hieroglyphic or Arabic. But I didn't think the writing itself would be "hieroglyphics". One hieroglyph, two hieroglyphs. "Learn hieroglyphic writing" or "Learn hieroglyphs". But what do I know? Not an Egyptologist or linguist.

  • @VoicesofAncientEgypt
    @VoicesofAncientEgyptАй бұрын

    You are correct. As an Egyptologist, I actually wouldn't say "hieroglyphics" in my everyday life, but rather "hieroglyphs." I include the word "hieroglyphics" because it's much more commonly used by most people and so that's what a lot of people search for.

    So you studied however many years of Egyptology, then created a channel to teach others, but use the same (mis)information everyone else does because... well, because everyone else does. A missed opportunity. I wonder what Thoth would think about this.

    @@sArAh-dj1xw a missed opportunity would be people not learning from me because they can't find my videos. While I generally don't use the word hieroglyphic as a noun, it has been in popular use in English for a long time, so it's actually in dictionaries as a noun now and, thus, actually is proper English.
