Anyone curious about hieroglyphics will appreciate this classic primer. This practical grammar comprises lists of frequently used signs and determinatives, a vocabulary of about 500 words, a series of 31 texts and extracts (with interlinear transliteration and word-for-word translation), and a few untransliterated and untranslated texts (with glossary), to be worked out independently.

First Steps in Egyptian Hieroglyphics love it,
By Fay Simon "Fay Simon" (Glendale, CA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: First Steps in Egyptian Hieroglyphics: A Book for Beginners (Paperback)
For a beginner, this is a lot to absorb. There is a lot I have to read and re-read, but basically this is very well done. It gives a clear explanation of the hieroglyphics and I love that there is text from the original glyphs to read and translate.
I recommend it. Just take your time and let your mind absorb.

This review is from: First Steps in Egyptian Hieroglyphics: A Book for Beginners (Paperback)
A little advanced for true beginners, I haven't gotten too far in it yet because I am actually learning from the beginning with "How to Read Egyptian Hieroglyphs: A Step-by-Step Guide to Teach Yourself, Revised Edition" (I know thats supposed to be underlined but I don't know if I can do that in this text box). I have a feeling this book will be an immense help when I learn enough to use it!

The concise list of words to be learned by any serious student is worth the asking price of this book.
