Hello ~! This is META EGYPT, here to spread the word about ancient Egyptian civilization.
The ancient Egyptian word we will introduce today is <storm> ๐๐
Ancient Egyptians pronounced it as <neshni>.
Storms are occurring around the world these days.
It is said that the Korean Peninsula will also be affected soon, and we hope it passes without any damage.
In Egyptian, the word for storm is <neshni>.
By the way, do you see the determinative at the end? This determinative represents a canid animal that symbolizes Set, the god of storms.
Set was not only the god of the desert but also the god of storms.
So, the Egyptians used the pronunciation <neshni> for the word 'storm' and then used the image of Set as the determinative.
