Summary/Abstract: This paper gives an overview of plays on words with the Egyptian irp ‘wine’. In total, seven examples could be found, which are introduced individually and, as much as possible, reduced to origins related to sounds. The relatively large number of plays on words built with irp ‘wine’ can be explained by the importance of wine in cultural history.
