I came across a few things when I typed in "hieroglyphics facts" on Google :)

This was all found on the website Ducksters.com. Here is the link: https://www.ducksters.com/history/ancient_egyptian_hieroglyphics.php

*I did not come up with any of this information. All credit goes to Ducksters.com*

  • It could be written in almost any direction; left to right, right to left, or top to bottom. The reader would figure out which way to read it by the direction of the symbols.
  • They didn't use any punctuation.
  • One of the goals in writing hieroglyphics was that the writing would look like art and be beautiful to look at.
  • A single picture symbol could stand for a whole word, called an ideogram, or a sound, called a phonogram. For example, a picture of an eye could mean the word "eye" or the letter "I".

There's a lot more on other sites, too, but I hope this helps you! :)
