<ul>
<li>The above omen is used to reconstruct parts of <a href="https://tieromina.acdh-dev.oeaw.ac.at/omens/Omen-32-A-3/tei">32.A.3</a> (see the commentary there) as they appear to preserve the same omen and both appear in sequences about lizards falling in relation to a man.</li>
</ul>
<p style="margin-left:48px">On the other hand, <a href="https://tieromina.acdh-dev.oeaw.ac.at/omens/Omen-32-A-3/tei">32.A.3</a> also helps us interpret the above apodosis. The Assur protasis reads SÙH <em>ni-zíq-tu</em><sub>4</sub> ‘confusion, grief’, and the hand copy (STT 323) of SU 1952, 242 2 shows a damaged SUḪUR, as noted by <em>If a City </em>2 (183, n. 2). According to Borger (2010, 173 sign 646 SUḪUR) the sign SUḪUR is to be read SÙḪ.</p>
<p style="margin-left:48px"><em>If a City </em>2 (182, 32.2) leaves the sign as uninterpreted and reads it as two signs.</p>

<li>See the commentary at <a href="https://tieromina.acdh-dev.oeaw.ac.at/omens/Omen-32-A-3/tei">32.A.3</a> for a discussion on the emotion <em>niziqtu. </em></li>
