14. ŠŠ-stem (Causative stem)

SBSB: Standard Babylonian (ca. 1000–0 BCE) — new attestation (not in AHw/CAD) ŠŠ-stem (Causative stem) PN … ša māt GN māt GN₂ u abbēʾa ú-šá-an-kid* RIMB 2, 293: 41 “PN who caused trouble to the land of GN, the land of GN₂, and my forefathers”. Cavigneaux/Ismail 1990, 355: 25 derive the form from the verb nesû whereas RIMB 2, 293 emends the form to ú-ša-an-si!-<ku>-šu, from nasāku Š “they rejected (lit. let throw off).” However, the following šu (note that for suffixed pronouns, the text usually uses -šú) is most likely the anaphoric pronoun šū and belongs to the following phrase. The form shows secondary nasalization from originally assimilated ušankid > ušakkid > ušankid (cf. GAG § 102d). See also RIMB 2, 297 ii 25 (∥ ú-šá-an-kid! (text: GIŠ)*). new

Discussion

Note that nakādu and naqādu (stative only) “to be in danger, be in danger(ous condition)” (and D “to bring someone/something in a critical position”) may represent the same verb.
