Neue Beispiele fuer die Elision von h im Ägyptischen—ein Zwischenbericht

Abstract

The focus of this contribution is on the loss of the Egyptian consonant h. The article follows a study by the same the author in JARCE 50 (2014) about the same topic that dealt exclusively with examples from the Middle Kingdom. The time range is extended here to the late material. The starting point is given by writings of individual words on the one hand, and of plays on words on the other. The weakness of h is not restricted to the Egyptian language, but can also be observed in other oriental idioms.
