nfr
Good/Beautiful

The Egyptian hieroglyph 𓄤 serves as a phonogram representing the triliteral consonant sequence nfr, and appears in Gardiner's sign list as number F35. It appears in the Egyptian word for "perfect, complete" (with the extended meanings of "good, pleasant, well, beautiful"), which has a reconstructed pronunciation of [naːfir] according to Loprieno. The hieroglyph has a conventional Egyptological vocalization of nefer.
