Refers to someone's mother; the daughters of Ibn al-ʿArīsḥī; the sender and another man falling sick; and trebuchet stones (גנק/junuq) which were sold to Nissim b. [...] for the astronomical sum of 4,000 dinars. "Junuq" is a very rare word and seems to be the only plausble reading of גנק, but it may not be correct. It is also not clear how much of the paper is torn away from the right side of the letter (probably ~2 words per line), which means the 4,000 dinars may refer to something other than the גנק.

Writing exercises in which the student practiced Judaeo-Romance words and names on at least one occasion in both Hebrew and Arabic script: פארין בן שביליינה بارين بن شبيليينة (Paren ben Shbiliyina). Although the first part of the name is difficult to interpret the second component may be related to medieval orthographies for the city Sevilla in Andalusia. There is also a fragmented phrase in late medieval or early modern Latin-script that could be Italian or, perhaps, an Iberian Romance language (this is likely a different scribal).
