Hello, quick BDB question. What does the SO annotation mean? I am pretty sure it is not the "A. Socin" abbreviation.

Re: SO Annotation in BDB entry
It’s the English word so, meaning thus (“in this way, in this form”). In this case, it means that the word אֱלֹהּ appears in Deuteronomy 32:17 without any affixes (prefixes or suffixes) and without a vav, whereas “elsewhere” (the lexicon says) it appears with a vav in its various forms (אֱלוֹהַּ).
