What is the language of Egyptian pyramid relics?

The remains of Egyptian pyramids are hieroglyphics.

The hieroglyphics in ancient Egypt were developed through pictures and patterns tens of thousands of years ago, and a systematic hieroglyphics-sacred calligraphy was produced around 4000 BC (6000 years ago). Like Sumerian, Hindi and Oracle Bone Inscriptions in China, it was independently produced from the simplest pictures and patterns in primitive society. However, this kind of writing was only hieroglyphics at first, and later developed into hieroglyphics-composed of three symbols: ideographic, phonetic and radical. Ideographic symbols are concepts or definitions that use pictures to represent something. But ideographic symbols can't express the pronunciation of words, so the ancient Egyptians invented phonetic symbols. Phonetic symbols are also numbers, and * * * has 24 consonants. On this basis, a large number of twins and trisyllables are formed. For example, the mouth is monosyllabic, pronouncing "Y", the swallow is disyllabic, pronouncing "Wr", the beetle is trisyllabic, pronouncing "hpr" and so on. But these pronunciations all have more than one meaning. In order to distinguish them, the ancient Egyptians invented radical symbols. The function of this radical symbol is mainly to distinguish different kinds of symbols, similar to radicals in Chinese characters. Most Egyptian characters have radical symbols. This kind of writing is often engraved on temple walls, religious monuments and paper grass. The main users are monks and scribes. Egyptian hieroglyphics had an important influence on the later alphabet.

In different stages of ancient Egyptian history, Egyptian hieroglyphics have changed many times with the needs of social life. Priests appeared in China, folk characters appeared in Egypt in the later period, and Coptic characters (Egyptian characters written in reformed Greek letters) appeared during Roman rule. Due to various historical reasons, ancient Egyptian characters failed to develop into alphabetic characters. However, ancient Egyptian characters had an important influence on the formation of Phoenician letters. Around 1500 ~ 1000 BC, the Phoenicians who rose on the east coast of the Mediterranean traded with the Egyptians. At this time, learned Phoenician monks rewritten simple hieroglyphs into orderly letters to help their business transactions.

Due to the difficulty of hieroglyphics in ancient Egypt, with the demise of ancient Egypt, this kind of writing gradually became extinct language and was completely forgotten by people. It is because of the discovery of Rosetta Stone and champollion's successful interpretation of Egyptian hieroglyphics that the whole history of ancient Egypt is presented to us.
