This is true, it begins with the hieroglyphic writing system, and completely
lacks any real detail about verbs.  Judging by the Interlinear text,
Egyptian was probably as close to Isolation as English is now.  Pronouns and
Nouns are given a decent overview, and tho nothing is said on the order of
words, it seems to be SOV, IIRC.
