Philological commentary

n1	(ā)lym(a)śläkk ats: a variant of the more frequent āñmaśläkk ats (5 times) and āymaśläkk ats (#ERROR#ref a5, #ERROR#ref a3).
n2	suda[so] ///: frequent sudarśaṃ ri is excluded.
n3	Considering the occurrences of the variant āymaśläkk ats, it seems that it might anticipate verbal forms like träṅkäṣ (see #ERROR#ref a5) or pältsäṅkāṣ (see #ERROR#ref b3).
n4	Together with Carling and Pinault 2023: 525, s.v. Sutasome, we could restore sudasome vel sim.
