𒀭

Dingir ⟨𒀭⟩, usually transliteratedDIĜIR (Sumerian pronunciation:), is a Sumerian word for 'god' or 'goddess'. Its cuneiform sign is most commonly employed as the determinative for religious names and related concepts, in which case it is not pronounced and is conventionally transliterated as a superscript ⟨d⟩, e.g. Inanna.
