First I want to point out that the word you gave is encoded in CCAT as 
<XUM:CFH>, as you left of the sheva and use the code of patah <A> for 
the qamatz <F>.

I did a search on the root <XMC> and the words you gave doesn't appear. 
Could you give me the book/chap/verse of these words?

This might be a formal game to you, but its not a game to me - as this 
is what I'm trying to find out.
