Document Details : Title: On an Egyptianism in Akkadian Author(s): DEPUYDT, L. Journal: Orientalia Lovaniensia Periodica Volume: 27 Date: 1997 Pages: 23-28 DOI: 10.2143/OLP.27.0.583535 Abstract : The aim of this brief paper is to adduce an argument in support of the theory that the “meaning of the [Egyptian] causative construction [consisting of rd(y) + prospective stp.f] must have been that one gives, with direct object unspecified, so that something else might happen”, with stp.f forming part of an adverbial clause. |
