A Dutch noun (pronounced "stoop"), meaning the step in front of one's front door (not very common today), or (by extension), the section of sidewalk in front of one's own house.

It sure would be nice to have some cross-language dictionaries autonoded.

PS. Another thing I'd love to see is a device to read the minds of downvoters. Come on, what the hell were you thinking? You dislike small print? Then tell me, so I'll stop using it.
