⭐ Nestle's only BIBLIOGRAPHY in the shard so far: the oath-noun's odd number (one form doing for singular and plural) is defended with de Lagarde, Orientalia 2, 9 and Hoffmann, ZDMG 32, 572. His scholarship, not our uncertainty. ⭐ Homograph with ܝܰܡܳܐ 'sea' directly above — separate entries, so two records (convention 3).
