"Hieroglyphs convey meaning through pictures."
Unlike English letters, which are abstract symbols that mainly represent sounds (phonemes), many Egyptian hieroglyphs are pictorial and can stand for whole words/ideas (logograms) or act as determinatives that show the meaning of a word, as well as sometimes representing sounds.
