In what way are ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs different from letters in the English alphabet? Hieroglyphs represent sounds. Hieroglyphs are used in other languages. Hieroglyphs convey meaning through pictures. Hieroglyphs are combined to build words.

Answer: Each Hieroglyphs represents a different thing vs the Latin alphabet which combines letters to form words.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are million Hieroglyphs each meaning a different thing kinda like Japanese, Chinese and Korean characters. English on the other hand (which uses the Latin alphabet) combines different letters to form words.
