Use this template to show reconstructed Egyptian pronunciations. All parameters are optional. For details about reconstruction, see Appendix:Egyptian pronunciation and the works cited there.

Basic usage is

Parameters

 * o or 1
 * The reconstructed Old Egyptian pronunciation, since the 3rd Dynasty but before the changes that began in the 6th Dynasty.


 * m or 2
 * The reconstructed Middle Egyptian pronunciation around the middle of the Middle Kingdom, after the fall of syllable-final and  and the fronting of palatals but before the fall of the glides.


 * ml or 3
 * The reconstructed Medio-Late Egyptian pronunciation during the Amarna Period (as reflected, for example, in Akkadian transcriptions).


 * l or 4
 * The reconstructed Late Egyptian pronunciation around the Third Intermediate Period, after significant vowel shifts (as reflected, for example, in Neo-Assyrian Akkadian transcriptions).


 * V
 * Set equal to anything if the symbol V representing an unknown short vowel appears in the pronunciations; otherwise, don’t use this parameter.


 * o2
 * m2
 * ml2
 * l2
 * More detailed pronunciations, visible when the template is expanded but not when it’s collapsed.


 * onote
 * mnote
 * mlnote
 * lnote
 * Further notes or details to be shown after the pronunciations when the template is expanded. (Overriden by  etc. if those parameters are used instead.)


 * q
 * A qualifier for the entire reconstructed pronunciation, for instance if a pronunciation section covers multiple parts of speech and a particular one needs to be specified.


 * ref
 * A reference for the reconstructed pronunciations, inside  tags. (References can alternatively be included in the note parameters.)
