Tips to remember the Russian word:
– Remember the similarity in the sound "сто" (sto) which can remind you of "sto-p," a word that implies staying in one place.

Explanations:
– "Стоять" means to stand or to be in an upright position without moving.
– It is an imperfective verb and focuses on the action of standing rather than the completion of standing.
