Tuha (Tuhk)
Ash, cinders, and cinders = Cinders = Cinderella, in Estonian Tuhkatriinu: Ash-Katie. Street built over limestone quarries filled with oil-shale ash. For interested parties, there is a põlevkivimuuseum (oil-shale museum) in Kohtla-Järve, 165 km E of Tallinn. One of a rock-based neighbourhood. See Kivimurru.
Tuhkpuu (Tuhkpuu)
Cotoneaster, member of the rose family, related to hawthorns, etc. Renaming of the north, western or ‘top left’ end of Lõhmuse põik in 2016. Tree/shrub group, see Kontpuu.
Tuletorni (Tuletorn)
Lighthouse. Apparently a renaming of Päe põik, road leading up to Tallinna Ülemine Tuletorn (Tallinn upper lighthouse) located at ///campers.ramp.alarm, sometimes known as Katharinenthal Rear Light, but correctly as Tallinn leading-line rear lighthouse, visible at 12.6 nautical miles. Top one third an optimistically-named black and bottom two thirds white. For lighthouses, see also Valge.
Tungla (Tungal)
1) Firebrand (cf. Icelandic and Old Norse tungl, moon); 2) Smut, blight, rust (plant mould or fungus). But neither one nor the other. Originally Sõpruse (1952-58), street renamed some 30 years after the Taara and Vanemuise group surrounding it, and a search in Kalevipoeg reveals it to be a mythical kingdom whose son and heir comes to press his suit on Linda but, like his four predecessors, gets taken to the cleaners. Also a well-known song by Kuhlbarsi F. and Hermanni K.A., Kungla rahvas (people of Kungla). Derived from Swedish kungliga (royal, kingly) and thought to be calqued on Gotland.
