m. [Ulf. stiurs; A. S. steôr, stirc; Engl. steer; North. E. and Scot. stirk; Germ. stier]:—a steer, stirk, young bull, an obsolete word, which seems to occur in Edda i. 460 (in a verse), unless the true reading be stjórnviðjar, q. v. The word may be preserved in such local names as Stjóra-dalr, and prob. in the dimin. Sturla, q. v. (qs. stjuri-la).
