	Translation Help Before Shavuot if possible - The S"A in C"M
2:38 quoting the Rosh discussing 7 tuvei ha'ir uses the phrase tuvei
ha'ir shehimchum (shin heh mem chuf vav mem) bet din aleihem.  What is
the exact root and meaning of himchum?


The proper spelling (C"M 2:1) is shin heh mem CHES vav mem, according to
the Oruch the words means placed, it's Mokor  is found  in Ezra 6:11

Gut Yom Tov, v'Kol Tuv

=====================================================
Interesting since the closest usage is in B"M 111a where it's used for
when an employer provides credit by a storekeeper to pay his employees.
