<Ellied> UmbralRaptor: The visible emission lines of a fluorescent lamp span about, uh, 12-15 little-fingernail-at-arm's-lengths.
<Ellied> the exact detail you can resolve depends on a lot of other things, namely how small and bright the source is
<Ellied> for an arbitrarily distant and arbitrarily bright source, the features you can make out will be about the same as if you printed the spectrum on a post-it note (or maybe a bit larger than that) and held it at arm's length.
<UmbralRaptor> Better than I expected.

<UmbralRaptop> Unicode has many knives, but this one gets used like that in a few places.
<UmbralRaptop> I'm not sure how to transliterate that.
<egg|zzz|egg> UmbralRaptop: so, first you need to conjugate it
<egg|zzz|egg> aiui you want G-stem (base), present, 3rd pers. sing. (masc.? fem.? I have no idea what the gender of iṣṣūru (bird) is), so idakāšū or idakāšā
<egg|zzz|egg> wait no the first a doesn't stay long
<whitequark> uhm
<whitequark> egg why do you know akkadian
<egg|zzz|egg> whitequark: I don't I'm just scrambling to figure out how to conjugate "the bird stabs" by digging through wikipedia + akkadian dictionary + upenn + ucla + random things

<egg|zzz|egg> UmbralRaptop: so idakašū or idakašā
<egg|zzz|egg> whitequark: I mean I should learn it properly tbh
<egg|zzz|egg> whitequark: and I can't find that verb in any transcription either which makes it hard to check >_>
<egg|zzz|egg> gah cdli ucla your search is slow
<egg|zzz|egg> UmbralRaptop: wait no I was looking at plural, since it's singular the gender doesn't matter
<UmbralRaptop> Hah!
<egg|zzz|egg> and it's idakaš
<egg|zzz|egg> no idea how you'd idiomatically split that one in signs tho

<egg|zzz|egg> bofh: can you ask whether one of the above is a sensible way to say "stabs"?
<bofh> egg|zzz|egg: sec, just did
