AnonymousDoes "indoor stalls" make sense?

That's OK, I suppose. You have supplied no context.

Thanks. For context consider this sentence : One of the indoor stalls must be of the Oxford publishers.

Then I think it is not quite right.

One of the indoor booths must be Oxford University Press.

Thanks again. If it's not asking too much , why booth instead of stall and why omit 'of'' ?

Anonymous why booth instead of stall

That is what is used for trade shows; a stall is for vegetables.

Anonymouswhy omit 'of''

It is bad grammar.

Thank you very much. What confuses me is how a booth is Oxford University Press. I thought a booth would belong to the OUP..
