Sto The primary meaning ‘stake, club, stick,’ leads to the root tuj, ‘to brandish or hurl weapons, set in violent motion’ (for  t,  to  st,  ). From are derived the  class,  stocco, ‘rapier.’ Allied also to.   ,, ‘stuff, material, matter,’ only, borrowed, like  stof,  stuff, from. the  étoffe,  stoffa,, the origin of which has not been explained.   ,, ‘foolish fellow,’ an abbrev. of ;  and.   ,, ‘to groan,’ only, property a  word. the  stenen,  stunian,  stynja. The verbal root sten, ‘to groan,’ is common to ;  stan, ‘to rustle, roar,’  στένω, ‘to groan, roar,’  stenją, ‘to groan.’ The root sten is a variant of the Aryan root ten, discussed under.   ',, ', , ‘prop, post, gallery (of a mine),’ from stolle,  stollo, , ‘support, post.’ Derived, like , , and , from the root stal, which appears also in  sthûṇâ. The latter points, like stollo (from *stolno-), to Aryan stelnâ, ‘post’; for ll from ln   and.  ,, ‘to stumble, trip,’ early only, an imitative form like. ,, ‘proud, haughty, arrogant,’ from , late stolz, ‘foolish, arrogant, stately, splendid, magnificent, high-minded.’ The assumption that the word was borrowed from  stultus, ‘foolish,’ whence  stolto, ‘foolish,’ does not meet the case, for  estout, ‘arrogant, bold,’ is borrowed from pre- *stolto-, the meaning of which is scarcely explicable by  stultus, only  stolz, ‘foolish,’ shows the influence of the  and  signification. *stolto is considered to be cognate with. stout seems to be borrowed from stout (for stolt), with a different development in meaning. — ,, ‘pride,’ is a lately formed from the.  ', ',, ‘stopper, cork,’ a derivative of , , ‘to stuff, cram, mend,’  stopfen,  *stopfôn, of which a variant stoppôn,  , ‘to stuff,’ occurs; to the latter,  stoppen,  forstoppian,  to stop, correspond. The assumption that the word was borrowed from stuppare, ‘to stop with tow’ (from  stuppa, ‘tow’;   stoppare,  étoupper), is open to objection. It is more closely related to stupfen, stüpfen,  stopfôn, ‘to pierce.’ With the implied Aryan root stup (tup) is connected  stump (tump), ‘to push, thrust’ ( τύπτω?).   ,, ‘stubble,’ properly a and  form; in genuine  we have  štupfel, from  stupfel,  stupfila, ;  the   stoppel,  stubble, and  stubb. Whether the cognates are borrowed from stipula (late  stupila,  to  stoppio,  étouble, ‘stubble’) is uncertain; nor has it been decided what connection there is between the  word and its non- representatives (such as  stĭblo, ‘stubble’). On the other hand, the root syllable of with that of  may point to Aryan stup, ‘to prick, pierce,’ or rather it may with  stúpa, ‘to project’ (to which  steeple, from steep, is allied), be traced back to primary meaning, ‘to stand out rigid, jut, project.’ It might also be connected with the nasalised cognates of, which, with Swiss stṻbes,  stub, and  stúfr, stúfe, ‘stump,’ presume a  root stū̆p, stū̆b, ‘to hew off.’  ,, ‘to stop,’ only; borrowed, like other nautical terms, from. to stop and.  ,, see. <section end="Stöpsel" /> <section begin="Stör" /> ,, ‘sturgeon,’ from the  störe, stüre,  sturo, sturio, ; corresponding to  steur,  styrja (styra). The term sturjo passed in the form sturio  into ;   storione,  esturgeon, whence the   sturgeon. The origin of the word is obscure. <section end="Stör" /> <section begin="Storch" /> ,, ‘stork,’ from the  storch (variant storc, whence , common to  and West );  storah (hh), also storc, ;   storc,  stork, and the   storkr. Its prehistoric connection with τόργος, ‘vulture,’ is dubious. On the other band, the cognates,  stĭrkŭ,  sterchŭ, ‘stork,’ must have been borrowed from. <section end="Storch" /> <section begin="stören" /> ,, ‘to stir up, disturb, poke, rake,’ from stœren,  stôren (stôrren from *stôrjan, *staurjan),  , ‘to scatter, destroy, annihilate’; to these<section end="stören" />
