Duane, over at Abnormal Interests, reminded me of the Theasaurus Linguae Aegyptiae. This is a really excellent resource for anyone doing work in Egyptian or related fields. Yes, it is in German, but Google Translate easily makes it useful even for students who don’t yet have German fully under their belt. Perhaps the nicest thing about the online version is that one can easily search for the Egyptian word in transliteration. There is also a search using Hieroglyphs that is supposed to allow searching for the spelling of a word using the Gardiner codes for the glyphs one wants to search. Disappointingly, the database gave an error each time I used it. Hopefully the error will be resolved shortly, or perhaps I will give it a try on a different computer. Either way, this is a great tool for anyone working with or learning Hieroglyphics.
