{tIHmey} n. "railroad tracks" [based on tIH "shaft of speer"]
Does {tIH} mean one rail, or one track (i.e., a pair of rails)?
I don't have much information, but I was told that "they travel on {tIHmey}". As the word is obviously based on the word for shaft of speer, I think that a railway track has two tIHmey, i.e. 2 rails. The other question is, if there is a monorail, would that be a {tIH} - or is the idea still having multiple tIHmey added ina row, touching with the ends? -- Lieven L.
