B Correct answer
Explanation

Hieroglyphs were the ancient Egyptian writing system, not a form of speech. Ancient Egyptians spoke Egyptian, but wrote in three scripts: Hieroglyphic (formal, monumental), Hieratic (simplified, everyday writing), and Demotic (later simplified script). Hieroglyphs represented sounds, ideas, or objects, not spoken language directly.
