32. DD-stem (Doubled stem/Intensive)

SBSB: Standard Babylonian (ca. 1000–0 BCE) DD-stem (Doubled stem/Intensive) arḫišam lā naparkâ ina agê ú-ṣir Ee IV 14 “month by month, without ceasing, he marked (the days) off by the 'crown' (i.e., the full moon).” Kämmerer/Metzler 2012, 230 translate “machte er ihn erhaben”, and Lambert 2012, 99 “elevated”, obviously deriving the word from ṣīʾāru. However, the probably correct reading uṣṣir “marked off” is already found in CAD A/1, 156 agû A 2a2'. eBL wrongly conflates eṣēru D and ṣīʾāru D.
