220 The rise of the semi-vowel _i_ between the vowels _a-a_ occurs under similar circumstances in _igi-ģe-ni-ib-ila-ia-dúg_, RADAU, _Miscellaneous Texts_, No. 4, 5. See also _Sum. Gr._ § 38, 2. The form above arose from _bar-ri-a-a-dúg_. The prefixed element _dúg_ falls under § 153 of the Grammar. _bar_ = _sapāḫu_ is a variant _par_, to spread out, scatter. _ 221 šub_, to let fall, _hence tabāku_, to pour out. Heretofore this meaning of _šub_ was known only from the forms _al-šù-šù-be_ = _ittanatbak_, SBH. No. 62, 15, and forms cited by MEISSNER, SAI. 8345. See also _šu from šub_, _ibid._, 8334 and _al-šù-šù-be_, MVAG, 1913 pt. 2 p. 49, 16. 222 The same passage occurs in Ni. 13856 II 13. _sîg-sîg_ = _šaḳummatu_, variant of _sīg-sīg_. _ 223 zig_ is probably phonetic for _šeg_ = _magāru_, see _Sum. Gr._ 258, _zig__7_. _ 224 lu_ from _lum_ = _dašû_, _dišû_, passim. 225 Cf. also PBS. V 25 I 15; II 13 _mu-na-ni-ib-gí-gí_. _ 226 eku_ from _uku_ by dissimilation of vowels. See also REISNER, SBH. 77, 17. 227 For _ama_ = _ummatu_, _ummanātu_, see _Sum. Gr._ 202, _ama_2 and WEIDNER, _Handbuch der Babylonischen Astronomie_, p. 86, 4. 228 See, for the musical instrument _AL_, _Sumerian Liturgical Texts_, Index, p. 221. 229 Text omits _zu_, which is not on the tablet. 230 Written _KU-KI_ Cf. also CT. 16, 44, 80 _KU-KI-gar-ra-bi_ = _ ina ašābi-šu_. 231 Enlil. 232 A reading _ár-im-me_, “it is glorified,” suggests itself. Cf. SBH. 93, 1. 233 Cf. TSA. 31 Obv. II. 234 See PBS. Vol. XII 12. 235 Cf. SBP. 295, 17. _ 236 ul-ti_ = _ḫubuṣu_, “the lusty man,” POEBEL, PBS. V 136 V 13, with which compare n. pra. _Ḫubbuṣu_, _Ḫubbuṣtu_, in HOLMA, “Personal Names of the Form _fu ul_,” p. 50. Note also _ul-ti-a_ = _ḫābṣatum_, PBS. V _ibid._ l. 12. The hymn to Sin, SBP. 296, contains in line 14 the same phrase. 237 Text not entirely certain. If correctly read the signs _ḪAR-GUD_ = _kabattu_ must be read in SBP. 48, 45 after the variant SBH. 3, 10. 238 Restored from line 10. The only previous occurrence of this name is in SMITH’S _Miscellaneous Texts_, 11, 1 which has _RI_ not _MU_. The end of the name is broken in BL. No, 27. Perhaps SMITH copied the sign wrongly. 239 Pronounced _udugga_ = _ṣaltu_. 240 The name as transliterated means _mudammiḳ musarrê_, “Temple of the benefactor of writing.” In line 15 its holy reed is mentioned, a mythical stylus symbolic of the god of wisdom, Enki, according to SAK. 6 h.
