 This is your chance to find out if you can use ancient Egyptian words to read some real Egyptian sentences.
Remember, the words are not always in the same order in English as they are in Egyptian. You may have to swap the order of the words to get sentences that make sense.
What's more, ancient Egyptian does not have many words we use in English. For example, they do not use the words 'the', 'a', 'an', 'and' or 'when' and they often leave out words for 'is' and 'are'. Let's face it, if you had to carve every word into solid stone, you'd also want to keep it as short as possible!
This means that you may have to add these words to your translations to make real English sentences that make sense.
Oh, and one other thing - to make matters a bit more interesting, the ancient Egyptians usually didn't leave any spaces between their words!
Good luck! And if in doubt, guess!
