dumu (see [Hymn to Sin, line 5], ṭu-mu).

è-gal-a-ni: è-gal equals êkallu, “temple”, (Br. 6252). È.GAL, “great house”, is the common compound ideogram for “temple”, both in Sumerian and Assyrian. The Assyrian êkallu is evidently the Sumerian è, plus gal which is changed to kal. The word has passed over into Hebrew, Syriac and Arabic. è (see [Hymn to Sin, line 3]). gal (see [Hymn to Bêl, line 14]). è-gal is often followed by la; here, however, it is followed by a, showing that the phonetic use of la and a is quite similar. ni (see [Hymn to Bêl, line 13]).

nu ([Hymn to Sin, line 27]).

mu-un-su-ga-mu is a verb and seems to mean “who is far away”. The clause occurs also in lines [6], [8], [10] and [12], only that in lines 6 and 12 SU is used instead of SUD. mu-un (see [Hymn to Sin, line 17]). su: SUD seems to equal rûḳu, “distant”, here. Yet when it is equal to rûḳu, it generally has the value sud and is followed by the phonetic complement da; here it is followed by ga. So the value should be sug or su. mu is a relative suffix related to mu of mu-un (see [Hymn to Adad, line 16]).

[5.] azag dimmer Nanâ-ge è An-na-ka im-me

The shining one of Ištar, who is in the house of Anu!

azag (see [Hymn to Sin, line 1]).

dimmer Nanâ-ge. Nanâ, also written Nanna, is the Sumerian name of Ištar. NANNU is sometimes written like RI which, when preceded by the god-sign, also equals “Ištar”. ge (see [Hymn to Adad, line 4]).

è (see [Hymn to Sin, line 3]).

An-na-ka (see [Hymn to Adad, line 4]). ka equals nota genitivi (see Br. 551 and [Hymn to Bêl, line 1]).
