No, it's TIQHMI -- perhaps that's what you meant. I don't know of any
TIMHMI; theoretically it looks like a -MI verb form of TIMAW, but if
there were any such form, it really ought to be TIMAMI. I haven't
checked, but one might very well find that in Lesbian Aeolic dialect,
which tends to have MI-verb forms of what in Attic-Ionic are contract
verbs.
