I’m carving this into the pyramids where it doesn’t belong, to throw archeologists for a loop

How do you write “YMCA” in hieroglyphics?
🥖🐍🦜🐌🛶
The old fashioned English makes it sound way more formal than it probably was
I don’t know Egyptian, but I’m guessing that phrasing is somehow closer to the original? “Thy” is sometimes used in translations to emphasise that the original text used informal 2nd person pronouns
Hieroglyphics were always formal language I thought
Hieroglyphics, let me be specific: I wanna be down in your South Seas
But I got this notion that the motion of your ocean means “Small Craft Advisory”Which one means butt? The bird, the ladle, or the squash on an 80° angle?
𓃘 or 𓀗 or 𓀐 are all good substitutes until we can find out.
Could be none of them on its own. Egyptian hieroglyphs had a meaning as a word but could also be used as letters.
They often also had a meaning as a part of a word or as a syllable!
nonsense script isn’t used that way
Lol
Can anyone confirm this? And maybe explain it in simple terms?
I see at least 5 hieroglyphs and now that I know what they mean I’d like to have them parsed in detail, thankyouverymuch.
I know literally nothing about hieroglyphs, but I found all the individual symbols (I think):
𓄤 𓆑𓂋𓅱𓏭𓄖𓎡𓏭
Could be a fun tattoo.
Sounds very Monty Python.
