Usage notes[edit]
This word only appears in the name of a drug, ḥs n(j) jdw (literally “dung of the jdw-animal”). It is possible that this drug name is to be construed as a direct genitive construction rather than an indirect one, in which case the n would instead be part of the animal name, and this word would properly be read njdw.
