Book Synopsis An Egyptian English Spelling Book by : Steven L. Allen
Download or read book An Egyptian English Spelling Book written by Steven L. Allen and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-12-21 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The old-style spelling books have great appeal as presenting simple words in short lessons to make it easy to acquire a vocabulary of words connected by similar character combinations. This approach is used in combination with exposing the reader to Hieroglyphic characters representing the equivalent Roman letters of the alphabet for each word. The spelling of the words using Hieroglyph characters contained herein is not that of Egyptian words, but of English words. This book is not intended to teach the spelling of Egyptian words. The intent of this book is to provide a method of learning Hieroglyphic characters by sight in much the same way children learn the Roman alphabet. By seeing the same Hieroglyph used in place of a letter in the alphabet the reader will learn to associate that Hieroglyph with the alphabetic letter, and thus form a means to remember it.

SIR ERNEST ALFRED THOMPSON WALLIS BUDGE (1857-1934) was born in Bodmin, Cornwall in the UK and discovered an interest in languages at a very early age. Budge spent all his free time learning and discovering Semitic languages, including Assyrian, Syriac, and Hebrew. Eventually, through a close contact, he was able to acquire a job working with Egyptian and Iraqi artifacts at the British Museum. Budge excavated and deciphered numerous cuneiform and hieroglyphic documents, contributing vastly to the museum's collection. Eventually, he became the Keeper of his department, specializing in Egyptology. Budge wrote many books during his lifetime, most specializing in Egyptian life, religion, and language.
