Discussion

Mrudula Tambe (asker) Mar 6, 2006:
Darsh-Kaksh/Koshth People prefer to speak English words more while speaking Indian Languages because 1) They feel its a fashion 2) English words are compact viz. TV is preferable than Doordarshan, phone is preferable than Doordhwani. So I think for Show-room Darsh-kaksh/koshth is better word

agree PRAKASH SHARMA : yes, exactly the same. but it's sure that instead of kaksh something else must be put, because many a time it's not a showROOM only when we say showroom. Sometimes, it's a hall, sometimes collection of many rooms practically!

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Namskar, according to me 'Pradarshan Koshth' is also a good option but I think in Hindi `Kaksh' is used more. As peer agreements are more I select this answer as winner. Priya Shilpi try to give the answer in unicode devnaagri also."
