Ancient Egyptian
***
For Ancient Egyptian, our data model is compatible with the Thot Data Model (TDM, cf. Polis & Razanajao 2016).
Our metadata annotations are based on the ‘Thesauri and ontology for documenting Ancient Egyptian Resources (THOT, http://thot.philo.ulg.ac.be).
Egyptian lemmata are courtesy of the "Strukturen und Transformationen des Wortschatzes der ägyptischen Sprache" project,
Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der Wissenschaften.
The data release currently in use is accesible at: https://edoc.bbaw.de/frontdoor/index/index/docId/2919.

I propose to study how classifiers can be useful in targeting metaphors in a large corpus (in combination with other criteria) and what they can tell about colexification phenomena between [cognition] as target domain and various source domains (e.g. [motion], [action], [sensory perception], etc.). This study will be an important part of a bigger project about cognition and cognition related verbs in Late Egyptian (Uliege - FNRS). |

The category 示/礻 by iClassifier, created by Yanru Xu
"Ancient China and Ancient Egypt are two great civilizations of the past, far removed from one another both geographically and culturally.
Nevertheless, the scripts they used are remarkably similar in some key respects, despite their (apparently) independent origins and differences
in form. They use complex writing systems that share common semiotic qualities. The signs of the scripts are used in different functions:
as logograms [sound+meaning] for words, phonograms [sound only], phonetic classifiers [no additional sound (reiteration of sound),
no additional meaning], and semantic classifiers [additional meaning, but no sound].
Although ancient Chinese and ancient Egyptian are complex script systems that use their signs in three main functions –
logogram, phonogram and classifier – the way the sign-functions are activated in the two scripts is not always identical."
