editEtymology 1
editOften suggested to be cognate toHebrewבְּ־(bə-),Arabicبِـ(bi-); however, more recent scholarship disputes this on phonological grounds, as Egyptianm is not held to regularly correspond with Semitic*b by either the traditional school of Egyptian comparison or the Rösslerian school.

- in astate of
- in thecapacity of, in therole of,as,being

Usage notes
editThis preposition is often used with definition 9 to indicate temporary identity, so, for example,zmꜣhw (“the man is a poor man”) implies that this a temporary, rather than an eternal or generally true, state. Egyptian generally has an expansive view of what counts as a temporary identity compared to English.

Etymology 2

Particle
edit
|
proclitic
- (chiefly Old and Middle Egyptian, with a suffix pronoun)behold,lo,look
- Synonym:(Late Egyptian)ptr
- (without a suffix pronoun)whether,although
Usage notes
editThis particle must introduce a sentence. In Middle Egyptian, it is usually followed by an attached second-person suffix pronoun, such as.k,.ṯ,.ṯnj, or.ṯn, indicating the person being addressed; after this comes the subject, in the form of a nominal subject, a demonstrative pronoun, or a dependent pronoun. In Old Egyptian, a dependent pronoun could be used instead of a suffix pronoun, reflecting the word’s origins as an imperative.
