QM (or QWM) and QYM are, so to say, two faces of the same coin. So, their meaning is similar but their conjugation differs.
Meaning: -QM or QWM = to stand (Am 5:2) -QYM = to fulfill, keep -----> it is a derivation of QM, an "invention" of the wise (Middle Ages, methinks). Not found in the Bible. Conjugation: -QM or QWM = in a general way it behaves like verbs ayin-waw. -QYM behaves like usual pi'els. This phaenomenon happens with other verbs: -SG or SWG, to deviate -SYG, to enclose. Remark: ONE coin that has TWO different faces > ONE root, TWO derivations, each having its own meaning.
