See מצרים in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /mit͡sˈʁajim/ [Modern-Israeli-Hebrew], [misˤˈrˤɑːjim] [Tiberian-Hebrew] Audio: LL-Q9288 (heb)-Buffer-מצרים.wav Forms: מִצְרַיִם [canonical], mitsráyim [romanization], form מִצְרָיִם [Biblical-Hebrew, pausal]
Etymology: From a common Semitic source; compare Arabic مِصْر (miṣr) and Ugaritic 𐎎𐎕𐎗𐎎 (mṣrm). The ending is the standard dual form, perhaps related to the ancient conceptualization of Egypt as two realms: Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt. Connections have also been drawn to מֶצֶר (métser, “border, limit”) and מיצר / מֵצַר (meitsár, “sea strait”).
