Hieroglyphics with English translation. From inscription by Anna (first half of 18th dynasty) in Cleopatra's Needles and Other Egyptian Obelisks, by Sir E. A. W. Budge. Hieroglyphics are a complex system of writing. Certain pictures stand for objects, while others represent phonetic sounds. Thus, hieroglyphics focused on conveying the sound and meaning of words, not necessarily a particular spelling, n.d.
