Story behind the song
The word hieroglyph comes from the Greek adjective ???????????? (hieroglyphikos),[1] a compound of ????? (hierós 'sacred')[2] and ????? (glýph? '? carve, engrave'; see glyph),[3] in turn a calque of Egyptian mdw·w-n?r (medu-netjer) 'god's words'.[4] The glyphs themselves were called ?? ??????????? ???????? (tà hieroglyphikà grámmata) 'the sacred engraved letters'. The word hieroglyph has become a noun in English, standing for an individual hieroglyphic character. As used in the previous sentence, the word hieroglyphic is an adjective, but is often erroneously used as a noun in place of hieroglyph.
