lapp
It appears there might be a typo in your question as "lapp" does not appear to be a recognized term in English. If you're referring to "Lapp," it's an outdated term, considered derogatory, that was once used to refer to the Sami people, an indigenous nomadic group from the northern parts of Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia. Alternatively, "lap" could refer to the flat area between the waist and knees of a sitting person or a complete circuit or round in a race. Clarification might be needed to provide a more accurate answer.
