Sometimes some biliterate, triliterate, and quadrilateral signs are complemented by monolithic signs. These signs reiterate phonemes already included in the sign with which they go and are not transliterated (they are the signs marked by an asterisk):

As a consequence of the use of phonetic complements, it turns out that the same word can be written in different ways using one number or another of signs depending on the taste of the scribe or, many times, on the available space:

For this reason, and as a practical matter, we will point out that, when using the Egyptian hieroglyphic dictionaries, we will look for the words not by the signs but by the transliteration which is really what we have to verify that they coincide, although the signs with which they have The word has been written are different from those found in the dictionary. Hence, it is absolutely essential to carry out a correct transliteration of the signs.
