Commentary
Philological commentary
| n1 | Might ṣeri actually be peri? |
|---|---|
| n2 | for first person -uwa cf. pleṅkuwa, prekuwa. As far as I can see, this is the first attestation of the first person singular preterite of tā-. |
| n3 | This could be a form derived from pärk- 'ask', thus maybe 'request', but the derivation is obscure. |
