n (“to, for”) +‎ -j (“nisba ending”)

1. of
2. belonging
3. introduces the agent of an infinitive when it is a personal pronoun

This genitival adjective can be used to express the indirect genitive. In this case, it indicates that the noun preceding it, with which it agrees in gender and number, is possessed by the noun which follows it.

• nt-ꜥ

n (“to, for”) +‎ -j (“adverbializing suffix”).

1. for it, to it, thereto, therefor

• jmjtw-nj

1. Variant form (before a noun) of n (“to, for”)

Cognate to Arabic لَا‎ (lā, “no, not”), Hebrew לֹא‎ (lō, “no, not”), Aramaic לָא‎ (lā, “no, not”).

 proclitic

1. (Old Egyptian) not; negates any sentence
2. (Middle and later Egyptian) not; negates a nominal sentence, an adjectival sentence of possession, or the rheme of an emphatic clause (used with js; see Usage Notes below)
3. no, not any; negates an individual noun
4. not; negates other individual words

• When used alone, nj negates the individual word following it.

• When negating (nonverbal) nominal sentences, adjectival sentences of possession (which start with the genitival adjective n(j) ), and rhemes of emphatic clauses, this particle is typically followed by the first element of the negated clause and then the negative particle js. In Middle Egyptian it cannot negate adjectival sentences which do not indicate possession, nor adverbial sentences, which are instead negated by nn. It also cannot negate verbal sentences that are not emphatic, so the presence of a verb between nj and js always indicates an emphatic clause.

• nj combines with a number of other words to form negative particles with more specialised meanings, for which see the next section.
