In hieroglyphs the word for a god was written nTr (where the T can sometimes have a tch sound value). This could be expressed in several ways, including the sign for a flag flying from a pole, followed by the determinative sign for a god - a kneeling male figure with a beard.
To make this plural (gods) you can either write the "flag" hieroglyph three times in a row, or make three short vertical strokes after the word; in both cases the sound value is nTrw.
There are other ways of writing this word, but the "flag" sign is the most common.
