Abstract:

New Edition

The Elemcntary Grammar contained in this volume is available for all 
hieroglyphic texts written whilst the old Egyptian was still a living language, 
and the hieroglyphic system of writing continued in its original purity. It is of 
the utmost importance that the student should begin with these texts, for 
although the vocabulary and grammar of the later inscriptions resemble those 
of the better period, as closely as modern Latin does that of the ancient, and 
although the contents of these inscriptions are often of the highest historical 
and archeological interest, the hieroglyphic system which they exhibit is 
extremely corrupt, particularly in the Roman period; it confounds articulations 
which the ancient Egyptians scrupulously distinguished, signs originally 
syllabic are used with purely alphabetic values, the ancient values are 
sometimes ignored and entirely new ones substituted. When the original 
System is more thoroughly known, the corruptions which it has suffered will 
be readily learnt (from the preface of the 1875 edition). 

Contents: 
Hieroglyphic Signs, 
Hieroglyphic Vocabulary, 
Nouns and Adjectives, 
Numbers,

Pronouns Prepositions,
