Ancient Egyptian phonology /
:
"In Ancient Egyptian Phonology, James Allen studies the sounds of the language spoken by the ancient Egyptians through application of the most recent methodological advances for phonological reconstruction.

Allen also explores variants, alternants, and the development of sound in texts, and touches on external evidence from Afroasiatic cognate languages.
