Abstract
The importance of hieroglyphic writing appears to be about the abstract visual features with regard to the linguistic word 'wn' and its different connotations in Egyptian texts from the Old Kingdom to the New Kingdom. The word 'wn' in ancient or contemporary languages has many connotations according to the context, but what distinguishes the connotations of 'wn' in the Egyptian language is the application of semiotics to the sign that makes up the word, which is a rabbit or a rose with open leaves. It seems that the ancient Egyptian used the meaning emanating from the characteristics of the rabbit to express the concept of 'wn' in the ancient Egyptian texts, to which he wanted to add the impression of opening in the case of speed. Both the verb 'wp' and the verb 'wn' fall on the subject of the verb, as the use of the verb 'wp' indicates the connotation and impression of relaxation and internal breadth, while the verb 'wn' indicates a feeling of speed in performance. The current study aims to research the concept and connotations of 'wn' and its synonyms in the ancient Egyptian language that used different roots/words to express the word 'wn' with its various connotations, according to the sign that makes up the word, whether the sign is phonetic or customs related to the concept, connotations, and synonyms of 'wn' in the texts of ancient Egyptian language.
