Hi pals.. a few days back, I was interacting with some Egyptian Executives. We were discussing about the recent news of the Egyptian Electricity Holding Company (EEHC), the nearly monopolist electricity company of Egypt, requires around 1500 MW of projects every year. Out of this as per the Egyptian Government, around 145 MW of projects every year should be from renewable energy such as Wind, Solar etc.
After finishing our conversation regarding the energy projects I have asked them about Hieroglyphics, the word I have read in History subject during my school days. Meaning of Hieroglyphics is “Sacred Carving”. It was the ancient formal written language of Egypt. This is the same language which was written on the Pyramids and Sphinks and other ancient Egyptian structures.
They were quite happy by hearing this word from me as it was a very holistic language for Egyptians. They given me lots of interesting and useful information of the language and also sent me a mail which was showing the meaning of each alphabets of Hieroglyphics in English. I have posted it here to share with you guys. The written Egyptian language, hieroglyphics, is made up of three types of symbols. Alphabetic signs correspond to a letter or sound produced by that sign. Syllabic symbols stand for sounds produced by a group of letters, a syllable. Determinative signs relate to a specific object or idea, such as man, woman, and water. Hieroglyphics can be read from left to right, right to left, or top to bottom. The direction depends on the direction the symbols are facing.
Below is the flash file, sent by the Egyptian executives, which shows the alphabets of Egyptian language and their English Counterpart.
