§ 114.The endings of the participles, as shown in the table, are, in the perfect: active—, passive y; in the imperfect: active tv, passive w. In number and gender, the participles are like the noun; they take, therefore, in the feminine singular the ending t, in the plural, the plural-strokes and the ending w, feminine wt, although the w is not generally written.

Examples : mk km.t, wCf s.wt “who protects Egypt and subdues the foreigners” (*14,1, cf. *6,5), mrr.w “he who desires, that—” (*21,1), “his father rnn św who brought him up” (*25,9), m-yb “he who fills the heart = darling” (*10,1), sy.y “the praised” (*14,9), dw.w “he who is honoured” (*32,1).

§ 115.The logical subject of passive participles is introduced either directly, or by n: mry RC, mś n wty “beloved of Re, created by Thot” (*15,7). In genealogies: yry n “begotten by (chiefly of the father)” and mśy n “born of (mother)” (*21,4. *24,3).
