What 𒈕 means
Its reading depends on the surrounding text.
Sign lists give LU2 šeššig and DIM3 as scholarly readings for this sign, not modern words; the surrounding text determines the translation.
An Ur III account records ad7 udu: ad7 means an animal carcass and udu means sheep. Later Assyrian and Neo-Babylonian sign traditions associate DIM3 with the spellings RAB.GAM and LUGAL.KAM, respectively.
