1. I want to see the cuneiformof these Sumerian lines from Descent of Inana (ETCSL) 411 and 412:

"Holy Erec-ki-gala -- sweet is your praise."

kug derec-ki-gal-la-ke4
za3-mi2-zu dug3-ga-am3

I assume it is the following:

𒆬 𒀭𒊩𒆠𒃲𒆷𒆤

𒍠𒊩𒍪 𒄭𒂵𒀀𒀭

gramatically: "holy Ereshkigal- ?- of

sweet-praise-great please-bring-is"

Did I get that right? I would love if there was a clear way to verify the cuneiform to romanized transliteration. Is such a resource available?

2. What is the grammatical function of "la" or is it "a" as in "ak"?

3. I want to put this into Akkadian (does anyone know where I can find a copy of this story in Akkadian?) I would approximate it thusly:

Allatum ellūtum

dalīlumki matqum šu

Is that right?
