WHAT??
I thought the BoM was in REFORMED Egyptian!!!
If you thought that, you would be correct.
If you studied the Book of Mormon, you would find that the reason they wrote in reformed Egyptian instead of the Hebrew they spoke in was because of the difficulty of engraving Hebrew characters on metal plates. Their reformed Egyptian characters were invented to make engraving easier and more compact.
Moroni did not like having to write in reformed Egyptian: "Thou hast also made our words [spoken in Hebrew] powerful and great, even that we cannot write them. Wherefore, when we write [in reformed Egyptian], we behold our weakness and stumble because of the placing of our words; and I fear lest the Gentiles shall mock at our words."
"And when I had said this, the Lord spake unto me, saying: 'Fools mock, but they shall mourn; and my grace is sufficient for the meek that they shall take no advantage of your weakness; and if men come unto Me, I will show them their weakness; I give men weakness that they may be humble, and My grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before Me.'"
