Don't trust that word list. I've seen it around before and most of it is seemingly not Sumerian. Of the list you've provided, the only word I can find in the Pennsylvania Sumerian Dictionary is "ANBAR". Eleven of them are actually Akkadian, and four are from other sources. While it's true that Akkadian and Sumerian mingled a lot, that doesn't really explain what's going on here.

That first one does reassert my concern about using Sumerian, because again, accents, diacritic marks, special characters/etc are N O T G R E A T for keyboards/BYOND.
