Subject: Ossama Alsaadawi & English alphabets


I am interested in a statement that Ossama Alsaadawi made about English alphabets being derived (directly) from Hieroglyphs.

I have studied the Pyramid Texts in English translation, for many years, and have found "word mazes" with in them. There'll always be a "clue" along the way that tells you [what you should read] when you've exited the maze correctly. I have been fascinated that these should work in English. But perhaps the work by Ossama Alsaadawi suggests why.

A friend asked me whether hieratic script came from the hieroglyphics also?

Looking forward to a very pleasant exchange.
