VE 877

Section: -

Hajouz no.: 689

Bilingual occurrences

The entry does not belong to the VE because the text where it appears is the [Bilingual List of Animals 1], not an excerpt from the VE ([Excerpt v]), as intended by Pettinato.

Source(s) Manuscript(s) Gloss
[Excerpt v] obv.VIII:4-5 [Bilingual list of animals 1] ḪUB2.ḪUB2 / gu2-du-gu2-du-wu-um

Monolingual occurrences

Composition(s) Lemma
[EBK-C4] rev.III’:11’ ḪUB₂.ḪUB₂

¶ ‘One that is always jumping’; maybe a loan from Sum. gud₂, gu₄-ud, ‘to jump’, see [Civil, ‘Bilingualism’ (1984)], 92. Note that the composite text in MEE 4 (p.298) assigns the term to the bilingual excerpt u (MEE 4, 95), but it is attested in MEE 4, 96 (TM.75.G.10018), labelled by Pettinato as excerpt v. In addition, the text can be classified as a bilingual list of animals, rather than an excerpt of the VE. The entry should thus be removed as it does not present any direct connection to any manuscript of the VE. See also [Sjöberg, ‘Notes on Selected Entries I’ (2003)], 551-552.
