Best Answer

The Egyptians never developed an alphabet - this is a deliberate falsification on the part of certain misleading American internet sites. There were many different types of signs used in hieroglyphs, including some that stood for a single consonant sound. These were sometimes used to spell out foreign words and names (such as Cleopatra, Ptolemy and autocrator).

This does not mean that the ancient Egyptians ever used an alphabet - they did not. Those web pages that give fake alphabets in hieroglyphs are simply fooling gullible people. They include signs for a, e, i o and u which are nothing to do with ancient Egypt or hieroglyphs, since hieroglyphs did not write any vowel sounds.

It is therefore impossible to "match Egyptian alphabet hieroglyphs in English".

What is the picture writing ancient Egyptians?

Hieroglyph alphabet translator write your name like an EgyptianBasket with HandleAlphabet SymbolIn AD 391 the Byzantine Emperor Theodosius I closed all pagan temples throughout the empire. This action terminated a four thousand year old tradition and the message of the ancient Egyptian language was lost for 1500 years. It was not until the discovery of the Rosetta stone and the work of Jean-Francois Champollion (1790-1832) that the Ancient Egyptians awoke from their long slumber. Today, by virtue of the vast quantity of their literature, we know more about Egyptian society than most other ancient cultures.The script was developed about four thousand years before Christ and there was also a decimal system of numeration up to a million.Unlike other cultures the early picture forms were never discarded or simplified probably because they are so very lovely to look at.Hieroglyphs were called, by the Egyptians, "the words of God" and were used mainly by the priests. These painstakingly drawn symbols were great for decorating the walls of temples but for conducting day to day business there was another script, known as hieratic This was a handwriting in which the picture signs were abbreviated to the point of abstractionHieroglyphs are written in rows or columns and can be read from left to right or from right to left. You can distinguish the direction in which the text is to be read because the human or animal figures always face towards the beginning of the line. Also the upper symbols are read before the lower.(Click the images - right, to download Gifs)Hieroglyphic signs are divided into four categories:1. Alphabetic signs represent a single sound. Unfortunately the Egyptians took most vowels for granted and did not represent such as 'e' or 'v'. So we may never know how the words were formed.2. Syllabic signs represent a combination of two or three consonants.3. Word-signs are pictures of objects used as the words for those objects. they are followed by an upright stroke, to indicate that the word is complete in one sign.4. A determinative is a picture of an object which helps the reader. For example; if a word expressed an abstract idea, a picture of a roll of papyrus tied up and sealed was included to show that the meaning of the word could be expressed in writing although not pictorially.Hieroglyphic Alphabet TranslatorHieroglyphic eCardsHave some fun with the Hieroglyphic Alphabet Translator.
