No - definitely not: {yIvbeH} is defined as "tunica", but there is
additional information (you need to get KGT) that in a regioal dialect
of voSpegh, this word is used for a sleeveless shirt. The Talknow
software used {yIvbeH SeQHa'} for T-shirt. This makes conclude that a
yIvbeH has sleeves, or at least is not always without them.
