^{page 94 note 3} The text of the Assyrian translation reads: lišan Šumeri tamšil Ak[kadi], “the tongue of Šumer the likeness of (the tongue of) Ak[kad assumed?].” The Sumerian original has the character eme, “tongue,” before the break, implying that the original, when complete, read eme Ura, “tongue of Akkad.”
