Best Answer

There isn't a single hieroglyph for "strengh." (Most words were written with more than one glyph.) However, there are a couple of glyphs that were commonly used as determinatives in the spelling of words involving strength. One is a man standing upright and wielding a stick with both hands (A24 in Sir Alan Gardiner's catalog of hieroglyphs) and one is a forearm holding a stick in its fist (Gardiner's D40). A determinative is a glyph included in a spelling not for its sound value but rather to indicate the word's category of meaning.
