The words need to be spelled out in Assyrian. If you are adroit in the language, and spelling these words is as easy to you as me spelling them in english, I would appreciate the help. I don't think I will be doing this because it will take me forever to look up each word to make sure I spelled them right. Of course, all credit shall be acknowledged. Basseemaa rraabaa.
