The word hieroglyphic, similar to hieroglyph, comes from the Greek adjective ἱερογλυφικός (hieroglyphikos), a compound of ἱερός ('sacred') and γλύφω ('Ι carve, engrave'). The glyphs themselves were called τὰ ἱερογλυφικὰ γράμματα ('the sacred engraved letters').
From the entry above, hieroglyph can be translated into "sacred engraved letters" or perhaps, "sacred writing". These "sacred writings" has been on this Earth quite some time; they could be ancient.
In the dictionary, it says hieroglyphs are hard to desipher. Here at Ancient Hieroglyphs KT has collected an assortment of Neopian Times articles to help you learn how to write!
