‘(unknown)’1.1.1Transmission
The word is attested once in the Songs of Lallupiya.
[E.R.]
1.1.2Forms
| unknown | wa-ti-in-az(=) | KUB 32.13 i 9 | (CTH 771, MS) |
If a -na- sign is missing between -in- and -az-, an analysis as nom./acc. sg. n. or dat./loc. pl. in -a(n)za is possible. However, this must remain speculative.
[E.R.]
1.1.3Graphic Features
Checked against the photograph of the Konkordanz. A remarkable feature of this form is the “broken” spelling -in-az, which is unusual in Cuneiform Luwian texts. Although we do not know much about Ištanuwa Luwian, a mistake can be regarded as probable (see under Forms).
[E.R.]
