			<pre>
			The STOP verb is used to stop certain actions you may be in the middle of performing.
			You may use this verb to stop singing or playing an instrument, stop teaching or
			listening to a teacher, or stop stalking someone.

			Syntax:
			STOP SING/PLAY/CHANT
			STOP TEACH <PERSON>
			STOP LISTEN
			STOP STALK
			STOP CLIMB
			</pre>

			==Notes==
			*The response depends on both the activity and its current state. For example, {{tt\|STOP STALK}} says "You're not stalking anything though." when idle, while {{tt\|STOP CLIMB}} says "You weren't practicing your climbing skills anyway."
			*{{tt\|STOP TEACH}} can end a class, cancel a pending teaching offer, or report that you are not teaching anyone. {{tt\|STOP TEACH <person>}} affects only the named student.
			*{{tt\|STOP LISTEN}} can still end the listening state after the teacher has left, in which case it reports, "You stop listening to your class."

			*{{com\|teach}}
