Assessment and permitted materials

Written exam.
The exam has 3 sections: #1 is "multiple choice," you will be asked about for specific verbal form and you must select the correct answer. #2 contains short phrases in Akkadian, and you must translate them and analyze the verbal forms. #3 is the cuneiform question, so you should (as usual) transcribe, normalize, and then analyze the forms. This last question will be based on the texts that we read together (so the Gīra prayer and Hammu-rāpi's building inscription), but it may be that some small things have been changed! #4 is a bonus question- there are many lines from Hammu-rāpi's building inscription that we didn't have time to read together, and so these are good candidates for bonus questions!
