U+120A4 "𒂤" Cuneiform Sign Ezen Times A Plus Lal Times Lal is a specific glyph from the archaic Sumerian cuneiform script, representing a complex ligature composed of multiple individual signs. Its name indicates it is a combination of the sign "Ezen" (𒂡), which often relates to a festival or celebration, superimposed or multiplied with the sign "A" (𒀀), meaning water or lineage, and then further combined with two instances of the sign "Lal" (𒇲), which can signify sweetness or a measuring unit. This composite structure was used in administrative and literary texts to convey precise phonetic values or compound meanings that were not achievable with single signs alone. As part of the Unicode Standard, it ensures the digital preservation and accurate rendering of this ancient writing system, allowing modern scholars and enthusiasts to study and represent Sumerian language and culture in electronic documents with historical fidelity.
