I cant find this answer on Goggle and u dont know how stupid I feel asking this, but I just want to know...

Well no wonder u can't find it
You're looking on goggle not google.com

They didn't feel like it.

Cause Ra is a weird name.
Think about it..
"Oh look, Ra is rising :D"
Yeah, sun has a better ring to it.

*Extreme facepalm*

For god sake, u used a non-existent zoek engine instead of Google, an actual web search.xD
No wonder u can't find it.

Check you're spelling before asking questions.

latin is the universal language for science so i suspect it has something to do with that.

sorry i couldnt be meer help

u know what your problem is?


Goggle.com is horrid for looking stuff up! trust me i've tried~

Isn't a goggle something u wear when your swimming?

Ask another language.

Goggle does not exist. Google does.

I hate Egypt....so I don't care.

Are u sure used the right Google?

Because u misspelled Google. It's not Goggle, it's Google.

Ask.com "It is not actually named 'the sun.' It is technically called Sol. Although, where the exact term for the sun originated is not known it is not capitalized because stars are popularly called suns. Look here for meer information: straightdope.com/.../what-is-the-proper-name-for-the-sun

Go Google it!! I now feel homesick.

Yeah, well I can see how link wouldn't be helpful. And anyway, I don't know the answer to your question. Maybe because the sun was named before the Egyptians came along? They weren't the first civilization...

Because Goggle.com is for computer viruses and winning free Ipads.

The English language branched off of the Latin language, not the Egyptian language, for one thing. For another, when the English language was first developed, we knew little about anchient Egypt, if anything at all, and the sun would have been named before the Rosetta Stone was even discovered, considering that the discovery of the Rosetta Stone was fairly recent on the time line. Sometime around the 30's I think, give of take a few years, but I'm not too sure.
Also, technically, Ra was the God of the sun; the one responsible foe the rising and setting of the sun, not necessarily the sun itself. Like... Anubis was one of the Gods of the underworld, and the underworld wasn't called Anubis of door any of the other names of the Gods who were believed to rule it at any other time in Egyptian history. I believe they had a different word for the sun, although when u hear Ra, u know it had something to do with te sun.
Unless I am mistaken... I know a fair amount about Ancient Egypt, but I'm not an expert on it of its language although I do know my stuff...
