Key to Exercise 16 from Allen

• 16

  Note: In the key, psSt should be pzSt.

• 19

  Note: In the key, the correct transliteration may be m snD m(j) m snD m(j) nDs.

• 22

  Note: One may obtain a translation in a more direct way than in the key by alternatively using the nisbe Axtj, "of the Inundation season", from p. 453, which allows the translation "shade of the Inundation season" for Swt Axtt.

• 33

  Note: In the key, the justification for writing w in the transliteration of the negative complement jtw seems to be the plural determinative, which amounts to a false plural (see § 4.6).

• 34

  Note: The exercise is difficult to solve completely without consulting the key, due to the writing of jAw in the fifth line, by means of A30, for which the meaning as determinative is given on p. 424, but no transliteration.
