=== Cuneiform === Urartian cuneiform is a standardized simplification of Neo-Assyrian cuneiform. Unlike in Assyrian, each sign only expresses a single sound value. The sign ''gi'' {{lang|xur|{{cuneiform|11|𒄀}}}} has the special function of expressing a hiatus, e.g. ''u-gi-iš-ti'' for ''Uīšdi''. A variant script with non-overlapping wedges was in use for rock inscriptions.
