Question: How would I translate the phrases...'dude' and 'sweet' in heiroglyphics

Answer: You will find a glyph called a scented pod and another called the scented rhyzome. A rhyzome is a root, similar to a tuber, which is filled with the food the new plant will need. Both these glyphs mean "sweet". However, if you are using the word "sweet" to mean good, that would be nefer (the heart and windpipe) with the complementary consonants of "f" and "r". Since "f" and "r" are only complementary, you could use just the nefer glyph to mean "good". Notice the Egyptians associated "good" with "beautiful" as the nefer sign also means "beautiful". Nefertiti's name means "the beautiful (or perfect some say, hence the meaning good) one has come" which led people to think that her parents were foreigners. As for "dude", there seems to be a few different meanings of the word. "Hey dude" seems to mean "Hey man" as if addressing a male person. Other "dudes" I have heard of are those who were "with it" or were dressed smartly. Probably using "dude" as a generic term for "man" descended from the other meaning, so the determinative man could be used, although the correct term is the bolt "s" plus the man determinative with a stroke under or beside the pair.
