 * Comment. This article is about a name for a small grocery store in India. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 17:31, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * delete This is just a foreign word which literally means "stall"(see search result eg for "South India - Page 113"). And nothing to merge. Staszek Lem (talk) 22:16, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. Of the sources found in Staszek Lem's search, the Hittite Etymological Dictionary entry is the one that sounds the most interesting. (SAL tapriyas INA tapriti ser marseszi nu taprisa mahhan suppiyahanzi: "if a girl of the tapri soils herself upon the tapri, [this is] how they clean the tapri".)  Hints from Hittite Heloise, anyone?  But if 'tapri' only means "stall", it doesn't really describe something unique enough to support an article. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 03:56, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete and Merge It is more like a local dictionary word for a General store. It should be merged into General store. Amartyabag   TALK2ME  15:37, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
