The ancient Egyptians did not use the term hieroglyphs - for them it was simply "writing".

In hieroglyphs, the word for writing is drf or sS.

drf is spelled out with a hand [d], a mouth [r] and a horned viper [f], plus the papyrus rolll for abstract nouns.

sS is written with the hieroglyph for a scribe's writing kit (ink pot, paints and pen case) plus the papyrus roll determinative.

Modern Egyptologists use the letter e for all the vowels not recorded in Egyptian writing - so they pronounce these words as "deref" and "sesh" - but we can not know ho they were said by the ancient Egyptians.

There are approximately 700 common symbols in Egyptian hieroglyphics. The best way to learn them is to create flash cards and memorize them. Writing them takes practice and will be easier if you have any artistic skill.
