gú-ti-im - in front of(?)
(ARET XI 1 rev. X 2, Kogan–Krebernik 2021b: 698)
Can hardly be dissociated from the root *ḳdm ‘to be in front, to precede’ in view of IGI.TÙM in the (quasi-)parallel text (ARET XI 2 rev. VIII 25), even if the exact morphological and semantic interpretation of the form is not yet possible (Kogan–Krebernik 2021b: 698).
