But can't one use {rIp} or {yej} on their own ? *Then* is the problem (or at least my problem..)
Should I, or shouldn't I use {rIp} and {yej} interchangeably ?
You can probably use them interchangeably for a particular council or assembly for which a word hasn't already been established, but once you've made the choice, you shouldn't switch. For example, you shouldn't suddenly refer to the *{qupyej} or the *{rIpquv} if you've already established these things are called {quprIp} and {yejquv}.
Imagine that they're the English words "council" and "assembly". Are these synonymous? As generic terms, they're probably interchangeable in most cases, but you shouldn't refer to an organisation known as the "Council of Elders" as the "Assembly of Elders", and you shouldn't call the "High Council" by the "High Assembly".
As part of a name, no. But it would be perfectly reasonable to address the Council of Elders as "this assembly." -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
