So it Sumerian identity is well understood. There is the brand new verb in question in my own Sumerian Lexicon on the material words section less than shu. ti, 'to receive'. shu function 'hand' and you will ti setting 'to approach', therefore the compound form 'to receive'.

That is a keen Akkadian phrase. Try the fresh new Sumerian Lexicon less than danna throughout the DAN area. beru is the Akkadian comparable, interpreted 'double-hour; league'. Never 'day' or 'double-day'.
