It is difficult to know which word you mean without seeing it in hieroglyphs. If you mean the plant called yam, it was not grown in Egypt in ancient times.

A few possible words you might mean are written in hieroglyphs as:

iAm..................to offer, make an offering

iAm..................to bind a sacrificial animal

ym....................the sea

im......................in, with, by means of, from, out of, as, when, together with

You may notice your word is followed by a determinative sign that will help establish the meaning (ym - the sea - is generally followed by three zigzag "water" signs).
