Gardiner's most important contribution to the study of Ancient Egyptian language was his charting of the hieroglyphs into classes based on the item portrayed in the glyph.

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0900416351, Hardcover)Although the first edition of the study appeared over seventy years ago, Gardiner's Egyptian Grammar remains the most comprehensive presentation of Middle Egyptian available, and is still an essential reference tool for all advanced work in the language. The latest, third, edition, appeared in 1957 and is now in its tenth reprinting. After each new element of grammar the learner is given a set of exercises, and the book also contains useful resources such as a list of hieroglyphic signs and information about the development of the language.(retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:16 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
