- tu = TU tú = tu = UD tù = tu = DU tu = TUM
- Among them, the first syllable referred to by tu has the highest degree of use, followed by acute notes and accent marks, and relatively low frequency in the future. tu x indicates a note with a new notation for that note that is not included in the / tu / range. In general, the above various labels all read / tu /, which all indicate the same note value.

- And four vowel sounds, a, e, i, u. Akkadian needs to distinguish its accent series, q, , , for which various "superfluous" Sumerian symbols are used (eg qe = KIN, qu = KUM, qi = KIN, a = ZA, e = Z & Iacute ;, ur = DUR, etc.). The Hittite language that received the Akade cuneiform further inserted the symbols for the portamento w, such as wa = we = PIN, wi5 = GETIN, and a conjoined symbol IA for ya.
