Literary or Literally?

I get the feeling that the label literary for the definition "a row of lights" is supposed to be literally, but not being familiar with the language in any sense, I am loath to change it. If someone who knows something of Telugu should happen upon this, then hopefully you will be able to decide whether or not the change is necessary. 58.7.88.173 03:48, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

It’s literary usage, since it’s not a native Telugu word. It’s a Sanskrit word. —Stephen ^(Talk) 04:16, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
