"𓏙" meaning in Egyptian

See 𓏙 in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Symbol

Forms: X8 [canonical]
Etymology: Generally taken to represent a conical loaf of bread, this glyph was conventionally outlined in black or blue, often with white fill and a red inner triangle; compare 𓏏 X1. Nunn writes that the interpretation of this glyph as bread is questionable: "neither X1 nor X8 is represented as bread on offering tables in funerary scenes"; in e.g. 𓏐 X2 and 𓏑 X3 bread is yellow; and conical bread molds did exist but were rounded: this glyph's shape is more like an angular "funerary cone", but those were white or red. Head templates: {{head|egy|symbol|head=<hiero>X8</hiero>|tr=(r)ḏj}} X8 ((r)ḏj)
  1. Ideogram for rḏj, ḏj (“give”).
