gift 



bane kian etsain. : bane for banetu, to join; Man, 3 sing. imp. ind. of verbs conjugated 

 regularly, united with etsain. I cannot account for the difference of form in etsain, here JM, 

 and on Left Side 9-12, 17-20 JE. Judging' by the context the.y are the same words. 



133 Line 17. mira nabe : see line 14. 



eritsi kio ekarri : eritsi or eritzi is here, as in Basque, a noun signifjdng, opinion ; kio ekarri, 

 he brings. 



zazri antsa : for zazu, see line 12. Here again is antsa instead of ansi, care. 



Ralapika ra aginza mai ekarri no, of bringing a tablet of offering to Ralapika. 



13* Line 18. izanda etsai ekarri or akar : izandaite (Lecluse), perhaps. For etsai, see Left 

 Side, line 21. The defective Etruscan syllabary marks no distinction between the participle 

 ekarri and the 3 sing. pres. ind. akar, now dakar. 



uka gune mira imini du : uka is the verbal form, now ukha, ukatii. The substantive form 

 is uko, Left Side 17-20. The auxiliary of itka is at the end of the sentence, du, he does. The 

 pronoun gu is in the dative, to us. In this case mira is a noun, regard, consideration. The 

 verb imini is in the Etruscan infinitive ; otherwise imi would suffice. 



135 Line 19. zekesa is formed from zeken, cheken, stingy, penurious, by replacing the final n 

 with the Etruscan mark of agency sa. See lanesa, line 11. It is here vocative. 



etsai erakarri gune kian: erakarri, cause to bring, kian., he did, gune, to us. Perhaps Pisa 

 persuaded some of the minor powers to refuse contributions. 



136 Line 20. gune noku ne, to us who fails. 



ni narri : the Etruscan has the same form of the pronoun E, ni or ne for the nominative and 

 accusative, but oblique cases change it to S, no. The verb narri is now narritatu, incite, 

 annoy. 



aginza mai rako : rako, in Etruscan raka. is a synonym of rano. 



ambe Turaan ema : ema for emasa, in Basque emaifsa.
