LhaXayEm.

I've been given to understand that an established word for stove is
/stup/, from the English word, you know.

By the way, I wasn't using standard jargon when I recently wrote a message
with the word /khUk/ in it for "cook(ing)".  A more established term would
be /munk paya/.  The English loanword does however occur in various
sources, including _Kamlups Wawa_.

Lhush san,
Dave
