Elf & Magic-User Sumerian LL Spell Names / Command Words

I posted this over on the LL forum, but I figured it would be good to post the full list here.  Some of the translations of words are pretty weak IMO, but I did the best I could with the available words.  I think the worst translation was Reverse Gravity (because Sumerians didn't have a word for gravity).  If I couldn't find the word, I tried to boil down what the effects of the spell were, and go from there typing in words till something popped up.  I used the link to find all of these words:  http://psd.museum.upenn.edu/epsd/nepsd-frame.html
