In many cases, you can't nail down the spelling of a word without knowing
what it means.
You didn't tell us what your word means, so there are different possibilities.
Here are a few:
-- In old German, a wagon driver was a wagner (VOG-nair) or <u>weiner</u> (VEIN-air).
As the Yiddish language (spoken among German Jews) developed from old high
German, some of them used the same word 'weiner' to mean 'one who makes or
sells wine'. The word came to the New World as a family name, spelled "Viner",
(as in my first high school crush).
-- The ancient city of Vienna, now the capital of modern Austria, is called "Wien"
(VEEN) in the languages around there. A person who was born or raised there
is called a <u>Wiener</u> (VEEN-air). Also, a small sausage that became popular there
was also called a Wiener. That's where we got the slang term 'weener' for a hot
dog or anything that resembles one.
-- A little kid who whimpers and whines all the time is called a <u>whiner.</u>
So the spelling really often depends on what your word means. That's one
reason why, in a spelling bee, they always give you a sentence along with
the word.

Answer and explanation:
<em>"So it was the hand that started it all... his hands had been infected, and soon it would be his arms...his hands were ravenous". </em>(Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, page 41).
This quote explains a part of the story in which Montag returns back to his home after another book-burning mission. But this one ended tragically because a woman set her house on fire. Before the woman commands herself on this decision, Montag takes a specific book with him. And is after he reads this book, that he starts his rebellion against the state. So that's why the book says that it would this hand (Montag's hand) that started it all.
