"Leash" would probably be better, because a hook made of lead would not be able to restrain a strong dog, since lead is a very soft metal. Or is it a hook for hanging the metal on? since the nouns - "hitching post" and “hook” are different, used for > different purposes in different locations for different classes of animals, > I think they should be mapped with different tags. > I wouldn't object if somebody came up with a good name that encompasses both, with a subtag to differentiate the varying types. Using a tag that encompasses both without a subtag to differentiate them would be bad. Referring to a hook as a hitching post is worse. And referring to a hitching post as a hook is worse still. -- Paul
