determinatives - pannous/hieros GitHub Wiki

Egyptian Determinants are similar to Sumerian determinatives

There exist two types of classes in the classification system of Ancient Egyptian that are not found in Sumerian: one classifying events generally realized as verbs, and a few very general and inclusive “abstract” classes.

Like in the revised view about the Egyptian equivalents, most if not all signs had a phonetic value ( optionally spoken), as evidenced by

the akkadian loan gušūru is almost certainly derived from ǧeš-úr meaning something like “wooden base, basis” and demonstrates that in this case ǧeš- wood has the function of a pronounced(!) classifier, i.e. ‘wood’.
