Computers:
A very commonly used word that is normally excluded by computer search engines. Stopwords have very little informational content, such as: and, the, of, it, as, may, that, a, an, of, off, etc.

Etymology (EN): → stop; → word.

Etymology (PE): Rahâ-vâž, literally “free word,” from rahâ “free, set free” (O.Pers. rad- “to leave,” Skt. rah-, rahati “separates, leaves,” Av. razah- “isolation;” PIE *redh-) + vâž, vâžé,
→ word. Fekan-vâž, literally “dropped word,” from fekan present stem of fekandan, afkandan “to throw, cast away;” Mid.Pers. abgandan “to throw;” O.Pers. avakan- “to throw, place on,” from Proto-Iranian *kan- “to throw, place, put.”
