7The term niŋ₂-il₂ appears to refer to a vessel or something functioning as a vessel when used to describe the eggs of the ostrich (ga-nu{mušen}) in Nanše and the Birds 47 (Veldhuis CM 22: 119 translates "carrying baskets").

9The meaning of saŋ-ŋar is unclear. Does it involve a poetic term for the grinding slab of the Millstone (see Civil, Sanmartin FS 134), a process applied to grain (see Attinger ZA 95: 246), the compound verb saŋ---ŋar, "to oppose, confront," or does it somehow reflect the profession lu₂-saŋ-ŋar = ṭawûm, "to spin?"
