We already have the word *SIrgh* (string), which is also glossed as "thread".
A {SIrghHom} could mean a thread as it is known from sewing, but the 'thread' of a screw is the helical structure that gives it its grip, which appears to be a different sense of 'thread' than {SIrgh}.
It's possible to say {(Hut'In) vIlmey ver} "spiral-shaped (nail/screw) ridges", but I don't know if technically {ver} can refer to a straight periodic structure like a helix.
So I'm probably going to vote for this one because maybe we'll get an answer to that question that way.
In that case, I'm voting +1.
Would Su'nIm cover this concept?
