What is the old Egyptian word for prince?
the eqyptian hieroglyph that underlies the word prince in english texts is transliterated SR. the letter e is often added to fill out egyptian words since the hieroglyphic alphabet, as it is currently understood, didn’t have vowels. if it is left untranslated into english, it would apear as the title Ser (or Sar). it is sometimes left this way, as there is occasional debate as to whether the modern word prince adequately conveys the ancient meaning.
