"It takes a while for the new coming reader to get used to the way the dictionary is laid out because it's chronicled using the Ancient Egyptian alphabetic chart (according to Champollion and other sources, namely the author: Budge). It has helped me out in sticky spots where I didn't know a word (sometimes it seemed like it was a hapax Legomenon, but proved not to be)."
"The best parts of this volume are the indexes at the back: English-Egyptian words and on what page and column they appear, a chronology of Egyptian rulers and their cartouched names, and a list of the names of all Ancient Egyptian locations. This is perhaps the volume that I use the most."
