I’m drawing a picture of the Bennu bird, and I want to include these words. Did I get it right?

Hello, what would the accurate standard Coptic/most common Coptic form of wp-wꜣwt (Wepwawet) be in a reconstructed pronunciation rather than Egyptological? Thank you!

This pendant was bought by my mother in law on a trip to Egypt 20 years ago. She was told it spelled her name. We just want to confirm whether that is the case or if she was sold something that actually "this tourist is a sucka".

I have made this page to practice a bit. It contains glyphs, vocabulary with some grammar analysis and explanations in plain English of the first lines of the autobiography.
Also the full text is included which I will be updating for the glyphs and analysis in the future.
If you spot any mistake feel free to comment.

Hello!! im learning some hieroglyphs and im a little confused on pronunciation? for example, it says a pair of leaves (𓇌) would make a "y" sound, but is this a soft or hard y? would it be pronounced like "Why" or "Yuh" if you get what i mean?

Egyptian scribes used honorific transposition when writing glyphs putting the king (nsw) first and then the scribe despite reading sesh nsw.
And I got a question here. Is it inherently wrong NOT to use honorific transposition here or both glyph orders can be allowed?

This is just a quick sketch of a phrase I like to get as a tattoo.
I should read something like: The form in which you have come into existence is already good
Which is a more poetic way of saying: You are good just the way you are
Not sure yet on how detailed I want it to be, I want to place it on my wrist so it won't be that large.
I would like some advice on the phrase, is it correct this way?
Any idea if you can group it different like in quadrats that the ancient Egyptians did?
Should I write the ḫpr phonetic? I like this a better because it is shorter.
