du        GOhA     same identity as                          identity
selbri; = sign; x1 identically equals x2, x3, etc.; attached sumti refer
to same thing

The cmavo list says it has at least three places. I'd take the etc as
evidence of an arbitrary number of places. I believe the refgram says it
is infinite placed, as well, though I can't recall where. The subject has
come up on this list within the past year or two, as well. (I think I
asked how to access the far far away places of du at one point.)
