<li>This omen is thematically linked to <a href="https://tieromina.acdh-dev.oeaw.ac.at/omens/Omen-32-N-47-/tei">32.N.47’</a>, with opposing protases. Their apodoses are semantically related as well.</li>
<li>The verb <em>nukkuru </em>with É means a move, resettlement, a change in domicile. See CAD N/1, 170 s.v. <em>nakāru </em>11c.</li>
<li>The above omen’s protasis is similar in meaning to the protasis of <a href="https://tieromina.acdh-dev.oeaw.ac.at/omens/Omen-32-A-52/tei">32.A.52</a>. There the protasis is DIŠ EME.DIR <em>ina</em> É NA <em>ina</em> GE<sub>6</sub> GÙ-<em>šú</em> ŠUB.ŠUB-<em>di</em>, ‘If a lizard keeps making noise at night’. The apodoses differ, however.</li>

<li>The difference between the above omen and <a href="https://tieromina.acdh-dev.oeaw.ac.at/omens/Omen-32-A-45/tei">32.A.45</a> lies in the subject of the apodoses: the Assur omen has É ‘house’ instead of NA ‘man’.</li>
</ul>
<p style="margin-left:48px">This difference likely explains why <em>If a City </em>2 (186, 32.48) reconstructs the above omen with É and translates (187, 32.48) the apodosis using ‘house’. The hand copy cleary shows NA.</p>DIŠEME.ŠIDinaÉNAka-laGE6GÙ.DÉ.DÉnu-kúrÉDIŠEME.ŠIDinaÉNAka-laGE6GÙ.DÉ.DÉnu-kúrÉšummaṣurāruinabītamēlukalamūšiištassinukkurbītirelocation of the house(hold).If a lizard calls out all night in a man's house
