From the Nabataean letter 𐢓 ( m , “ mim ” ) , derived from the Phoenician letter 𐤌 ( m , “ mem ” ) , from the Egyptian hieroglyph 𓈖 . See also Classical Syriac ܡ ( m , “ mīm ” ) , Hebrew מ ( m , “ mem ” ) , Ancient Greek Μ ( M ) , Latin M .

م / مـ / ـمـ / ـم • (mīm )
the thirteenth letter in traditional abjad order, which is used in place of numerals for list numbering (abjad numerals ). It is preceded by ل ( l ) and followed by ن ( n ) .
From Proto-Semitic . Sometimes thought to be derived from the pronouns present in Arabic مَا ( mā ) , Hebrew מה ( mā , “ what ” ) , and مَن ( man ) , מי ( mī , “ who ” ) , so that, for example, مُدَرِّس ( mudarris , “ teacher ” ) is originally من يُدَرِّس ( man yudarris , “ he who teaches ” ) . Compare also Arabic مَكْتُوب ( maktūb ) versus Hebrew כתוב ( kāṯūḇ ) , both meaning “written”, with prefix in Arabic, but without in Hebrew.
