Hieroglyphs for Everyone by Joseph & Lenore Scott
Heiroglyphs of Ancient Egypt by Aidan Dodson

There's one book I want to get that just came to number one on my wishlist of Egypt books yesterday. It's Ramesside, Inscriptions and Translations. $227 at Barnes and Noble. I found it cheaper somewhere else.

Gardiner's Grammar Rules!

Thanks bel- is only reinforces what I said on the Dude! thread about Ma'at being pronounced Mahrt, (to rhyme with art and Bart):

Loprieno (p. 31) points out that 3 (aleph) corresponds to an r in Semitic languages and so, for an uncertain period of Egyptian history, may have been some version of an r ("a uvular trill") in Egyptian- a modern 'ah' sound as well as the glottal stop.

This could help me in my dicussion with Osiris II. Thanks!

to be of help!

We make a good team! Thanks for all of your help- I do like it when people are friendly rather than argumentative *cough- Osiris II!*

lol

I'm sorry if you think of our discussion as an arguement--I considered it to be only an interesting debate. If I've offended you--hurt your feelings--I'm very sorry.

No. don't worry. ~Arguing is fun anyway!

Not with family

You like doing that don't you!

Whenever I try to make some sort of jokey comment you always crush it don't you Ramsekh. It really is quite unkind, but I suppose it is quite funny.

If it's unkind, I'll try to stop.

Nah. It's funny, if a tad annoying.

Well, ****. If I'm being annoying tell me. I keep losing friends because they don't tell me I'm annoying before it's too late.

I think that you are pretty friendly. One of things about forums for me is that as I can only say a few things each day I don't make a complete ass out of myself.

At least I haven't yet!
