Discussion
For the Sum. term cf. MBGT (MSL SS 1, 74-76 MBGT I + II), according to the reconstruction proposed in Civil 2000, 108f.: na = šū eme-suḫ, thus a grammatical term describing the Sumerian element in the first column. See also Bartelmus 2016 Vol. 1, 62. The Akkadian word is perhaps the product of conflating eme-sukud(-da) (“high language”) and eme-suḫ(-a) “choice language”, both also occuring in the NA group vocabulary VAT 244, r. iv 1ff.
