Both {rIp} and {yej} mean "assembly, council".
Is there any kind of difference between them, or are they perfect synonyms ?
Types of {rIp}: {quprIp}
Types of {yej}: {yejquv}, {yejHaD}, {yej'an}
You tell me if they're perfect synonyms.
An organization dedicated to scholastic pursuits or research is a *yejHaD* /institute/ or /institution/ or a *yej'an* /society./ The distinction between *yejHaD* and *yej'an* is not clear, though the former is usually — but not always — used for larger organizations. It is not known whether the first syllable of these words *(**yej**)* is *yej* /council, assembly,/ but there could be some historic connection. /[HolQeD]/ With this warning from Okrand regarding analyzing *yej* in these words**, I would avoid drawing a conclusion about the difference between *rIp* and *yej* based on those words. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
