tijorI means treasury.
A friend who is a mArwADI, is of opinion that this word like many other business terminology traveled from India westwards. Some googling gave different answers.
treasury etymology
Middle English tresorie, from Old French, from tresor, treasure; see treasure.
and even so, tresorie is even closer to tijorI.
other source said this is originally portugese and traveled to India with them.
But then if it is foreign, how come we have a common Vaishya surname of 'Tijori'. However it does not seem of sanskrit origin?
Ideas?
