Catchword for “tair lever”
Catchword: tair lever
Part of Speechn.
Quotation: You must have gone to a way side tea stall to have a cup of tea when you may be in a hurry. There you will find few varieties of snacks like a cake, a puff or a Kashmiri bread. But the one item which you can’t forget is flat and a bit longer. Hardly any body knows its real name because it has attained the title of “Tair lever,” a distorted form of tyre lever, given to it by some mobile workshop worker who must have been innovative in nature.
