Status: proposed. A proposed value.

Evidence: d reads SE-*305 ṣēdā, KA-*305 ka-ḏā 'thus', *305-RU ḏarʿ 'seed-grain' (class T, as DA-TU ḏātu), *305-WA-NA Dawana (Linear B da-wa-no) and SA-*305-MI šadmi 'terrace'; ḏ gives no root in SE-*305 and *305-WA-NA; θ̣ and ṣ́ form no set. Against: DA writes the same syllable

Note

Dual-function. Logogram ḎABBĀḤŪ 'sacrificers' (personnel category) for standalone-with-quantity contexts (HT89 *305 23 in 23+22+24+13+5 = 87 = KU-RO; HT100 VIR+KA sub-category). Syllabic da, a second d-sign beside DA: the two co-occur on five tablets and never alternate in one word. d reads every legible syllabic word; ḏ gives no root in SE-*305 and *305-WA-NA. Like DA, *305 also writes PS *ḏ (class T): ḏarʿ, ka-ḏā, as DA-TU ḏātu. ḏa rested on acrophony from the logogram, and sign acrophony is not Semitic.
