in Syriac haw, a difference only in the rough breathing prefixed to 
the latter, while the terminations in both, as far as can be traced, are 
probably contracted forms of the personal pronouns. 
The structure of the personal pronouns in Egyptian is decidedly 
Semitic, and strongly supports the race unity, as well as linguistic 
unity, of the ancient Egyptians, the Semites of the Arabian Peninsula, 
Palestine and Syria, and the Semitic Assyrians and Babylonians, 
who occupied the Euphrates and Tigris valley. 
The Egyptian personal pronouns are: 
Sic. BES 
Anak I Enen Anen we 
Entek thou Enteten you 
Entef ) h Entesen th 
Su j . Sen = 
Entes she 
The Assyrian pronouns are : 
Sina. Po: 
Anacu I anakhni we 
atta thou attunu you 
su he sun 
$1 she sin thev 
sunutu 
The Hebrew pronouns are : 
SING. Pz. 
Anochi I - anachnu 
attah thou attem 
Hu he atten you. 
Hi she Hem they, m. 
Hen they, fem. 
The Egyptian relative pronoun is Ma. 
The Hebrew relative pronoun is Mah and Mi. 
The Assyrian relative pronoun is Man-nu, Man, Ma-a and Mi. 
On examination of the substantives there is evidence, in their root 
form and grammatical structure, of unity of origin in the Egyptian 
and Semitic languages. There are only two genders in Egyptian, 
masculine and feminine. This is so also in Assyrian, Hebrew, and 
other Semitic tongues. 
The feminine termination in Egyptian is ©, t. 
The feminine termination in Hebrew is ath. 
The feminine termination in Assyrian is atu, itu, etu. 
In Egyptian the plural is formed by adding w, or zw to the singular, 
as Ja the land, Zau the two lands. Suten a king, Suteniw kings.
