1The expression e₂-gal edin-na (//namû) is found in the first millennium zi-pa₃ incantation Borger AOAT 1, 6: 86.

2The word a₂-dam is a regular equivalence of Akkadian namû (see CAD N/1, 249); the present entry may be a speculative variant. tr: palace of ... = pasturage

3Perhaps restore: [e₂-bu]-sa#.

4The Akkadian may be corrupt (for sinništi). As it stands sinniše qualifies bītu.

5For papāhu see Charpin, RA 103 (2009), 136. see also George CM 5, 925

6The equivalence lu₂-ur₃-ra = lurrakkû appears in Emar lexical texts (see Sjöberg Studies Limet, 130-131). It is likely that the entries lu₂-ur₃-ra = marrāqu/maraqqu in Lu₂-azlag A and B/C (see CAD M/1, 285) are to be read lurrakkû as well. Thus the word has nothing to do with "crushing" (marāqu) and the translation "spice miller" is without basis.

7The noun nahšātu derives from nahāšu "to be luxuriant" (see Greengus in Studies Finkelstein). Derivates of nahāšu are frequently equated with he₂-ŋal₂. In the present entry intial /n/ has been replaced by /m/ and /h/ and /š/ rae subject to metathesis.

8Sumerian is error for niŋ₂-al-di or a similar form.
