I've used ⲧⲕⲗϫⲉ (an attested toponym) to translate العطف. But ⲕⲗϫⲉ is a Sahidic form. Any ideas what the Bohairic would be? --ⲫⲁϯⲟⲩⲉⲣϣⲓ (talk) 15:13, 9 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

If ⲕⲗϫⲉ in this toponym is the same ⲕⲗϫⲉ which means 'corner, angle' (which seems likely and is supported by the Arabic translation although it could be secondary) and belongs to the verb (Sahidic and Bohairic) ⲕⲱⲗϫ 'to bend etc', then the Bohairic form would be ⲕⲉⲗϫⲓ. ⲁϩⲙⲉⲧ (talk) 18:34, 9 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
