## Word by word

| Word | Reading | Gloss | Tier |
|---|---|---|---|
| [JA-SA-SA-RA-ME](<https://linear-a.ai/lexicon/JA-SA-SA-RA-ME/index.md>) | yaššaram | in righteousness (adverbial accusative -am, √y-š-r) | Confirmed |
| [I-TI](<https://linear-a.ai/lexicon/I-TI/index.md>) | ʾitti | with (me)—comitative preposition | Candidate |

## Commentary

Context: Peak sanctuary libation formula.

][··] · JA-SA-SA-RA-ME · I-TI[ on one line (Karetsou, Godart & Olivier, Kadmos 24, 1985, 143), two unreadable signs before the formula word. The closing I-TI = ʾitti 'with (me)' (CANDIDATE) reads the fragment as formula word + comitative; the lacuna immediately after I-TI keeps bare vs suffixed open.

## Epigraphic note

Karetsou, Godart & Olivier, Kadmos 24 (1985) 143, Fig. 22: ][··] · JA-SA-SA-RA-ME · I-TI[, one line drawn in two parts, the change falling between the two SA, second SA and ME dotted, traces of two unreadable signs before the first divider. No line break: JA-SA-SA-RA-ME is one group. Not in GORILA V.
