The following are examples from Adolf Erman's Egyptian Grammar that will illustrate how to properly read the hieroglyphic "km-t" and through these examples, how NOT to render an improper reading. You will notice that Erman, like Budge, and those who write today use the Ancient Egyptian name for Memphis - "Ekipto" (He.t ki Ptah) or "Egypt" in their translitieration of the name to include the entire nation...

If you haven't done so already, download your copy of Egyptian Grammar -

Hey, I HATE that when it happens too! It's all because of the large page on Ideograms, and Egyptsearch has a time-limit on editing - sheesh

...I might have an idea on a fix...
