Etymology

Orthographic borrowing from Sumerian 𒌨 (ur, “dog”).

Logogram

𒌨 • (UR)

  1. Sumerogram of kalbum (“dog”)

Sumerian

Noun

𒌨 • (ur)

  1. a beast of prey, dog, lion
  2. (personal names) mostly translated as "dog of" when followed by a divine name, but some have connected it to the pronoun 𒄯 (ur₅ /⁠ur⁠/, “he of, the one of”). When it follows a divine name in the phrase 𒌨𒈬 (ur-g̃u₁₀ /⁠tešg̃u⁠/, “my pride, my dignity”), scholars agree on the reading 𒌨 (teš₂ /⁠teš⁠/).
