Particle

IPA: /iːɑ/ (note: modern Egyptological) Forms: i-i-A-A2 [canonical]
Etymology: Possibly a New Kingdom descendant of earlier ꜣ (intensifying particle). However, unlike that particle, yꜣ is not enclitic. It may have instead come from a contracted jw (clause-initial particle) + ꜣ (intensifying particle).
