1.1.3Meaning
Due to the fragmentary state of the tablet, no semantic specification is possible. Although Carruba 1982a:42 tentative identification with the nom./acc. pl. n. of an adjective lali(ya)- derived from lāl(i)- is a possible solution, it is not supported by any contextual evidence and too many alternatives exist. It is not even clear, whether the word ends after -ia(-)[ ... ].
