Read this excerpt from the riddle of the rosetta stone by james cross giblin. the schooling of a scribe began at age five or six and was usually completed by age sixteen. through long, hard hours of practice, the student learned to paint or carve more than six hundred different hieroglyphs. he also learned how to write in hieratic, a flowing form of hieroglyphic writing in which the individual symbols were joined. based on the context clues, a scribe can be defined as someone who builds. teaches. writes. preaches.

Based on the context we can infer that a scribe is someone who writes. This excerpt makes reference to the ancient Egypt scribes, who were the only people allowed in that time to read and write. The process described above gives us the idea of how they learnt it, it made them highly skilled and they were almost on the top of the social pyramid.
