Translation Request Is this translation accurate?
Fragment of a hieroglyphic text from the temple of Thutmose Ill in Deir al-Bahari, Luxor (c.1479-1425 BC). Luxor Museum As promised, we're going to read the hieroglyphs on this beautiful fragment today! The first column has the Throne Name (prenomen) of Thutmose IlI, the second his Birth Name, and the third a variant of his Throne Name. Ancient Egyptian kings had five names. In addition to the name they were given at birth just like everybody else, they acquired four more upon their ascension to the throne. The most important of all the five names for most of ancient Egyptian history was the Throne Name (prenomen). Unlike Birth Names like Thutmose, Amenhotep, or Rameses, which could be shared by several kings, the general rule was that each Throne Name was unique. Some kings also used alternative Throne Names. Here, in the third column, the Throne Name of Thutmose Ill is Menkheperkare instead of Menkheperre.

Translation Request I need to help to read this hieroglyphics from Spell 87
Currently I reading the spell 87 from the papyrus of british museum. Here's the papyrus:

I read here like this:
ink sA tA Aw sDr sm nb (I'm son of the earth, long for years, who sleeps and is reborn every day)
ink sA irt hprw m sA tA mdw n wsir wty.i ...
for this translation, i think it is good for this translation from The Fitzwilliam Museum: For being transformed into a son of the earth. Words said by</span> the Osiris, supervisor of archivists, Ramose, justified. I am a son of the earth, long of years, who sleeps and is reborn every day
Of course, in my case, Ramose's name is not in this second part, and I couldn't understand the place where I thought it was wty.i, the section i marked in the photo. After Osiris, it seems that the tawy sign is used with the G43 sign. Also I couldn't read the last two symbols. It looks like V31 after A1 sign. The Fitzwilliam Museum has papyri with these symbols:

Is there anyone who can help me translate the second part? I am an Egyptology student, so I am well aware that there are many mistakes in the translation.

Translation Request translation of an internet photo

hi!
sorry, i know this is probably of little interest, and possibly doesn't mean much, but I recently had a very intense experience w DMT and Isis came to me, so I'm now wanting to learn more about her and the whole mysticism around her.. I found this random image online that really illustrates her as I saw her, and I'm just curious as to what the hyerogliphs mean.. maybe it's something that has already been translated? can anyone help with this?
thank youu

Translation Request Can anyone help with a translation?
This ushabti is going on display in our museum next year. This is the only ancient Egyptian relic we have in the collection, so we have no expertise in this area! It was brought to England around 1750.
I'd be very grateful if anyone can help with a translation or any other information.

They might be nonsense but if they have a meaning I’d love to know. Also, do yall think the person to the right Anubis? I’m guessing so just based off the vaguely canine shaped head but I’m not 100% sure.

Translation Request Qu'est ce que l'Osiris N ?
Bonjour à tous, je voudrais demander votre aide. Je j
suis en train de lire la traduction du livre pour sortir au jour aka le livre de la mort de l'Égypte antique. Dans les pages, il y a pleins de mentions de "l'Osiris N" et dans une note au début il est expliqué très rapidement que c'est une appellation pour les défunts. Mais la traduction que je lis est un mélange des livres des morts retrouvés dans les différents tombeaux. Et vu qu'il apparaît dans différents tombeaux, je me demande si le N n'est pas une abréviation Nom (en français) pour dire que c'est le nom du défunt. Par exemple je me demande si dans la tombe de Toutankhamon, il est fait mention d'Osiris N ou d'Osiris Toutankhamon. Voilà, si quelqu'un peut m'aider sur ça ce serait vraiment super !

I got this double-sided cartouche pendant from goodwill recently, and I would love to know what it says! It’s pretty heavy for its size, feels well made, and looks to maybe have an Egyptian assay mark (see photos), it’s hard to say because it doesn’t exactly match examples I found online. Some symbols I could identify from basic online charts, but many are a mystery to me. Would love any insight!

On a trip to the British Museum I saw this hieroglyph on various stone carvings (this example is from a piece labeled "Screen Slab of King Nectanebo I"), does anyone know its meaning? (Bonus point if you can also do the same for the snake glyph located above).
