Teyde

[ Spanish tey-the ]

Phonetic (Standard)IPA

noun

Teyde

/ ˈtɛiðe /

I examined in detail the layers of which the peak of Teyde is composed.

The peak, called also the Peak of Teyde, is about the centre of a dormant volcano nearly 12,000 feet high.

Perhaps the old crater had been quiescent for thousands of years, and then it worked a little and threw up El Teyde.
