short stops

Quick halts made

Short stops are brief pauses or interruptions in movement, speech, or activity.

The term appears in contexts ranging from travel we made a few short stops along the way to conversation after a short stop to collect his thoughts, he continued.

In baseball, the shortstop position is sometimes informally rendered as two words, though the standard spelling is one.
