Usage notes
- In Old Babylonian this sign was also used to represent a glottal stop. When that happens, some Assyriologists assign the following special values to this sign: aʾ, eʾ, iʾ, uʾ. From Middle Babylonian on, the glottal stop was indicated by the sign 𒀪, originated as a graphic differentiation of 𒄴.
