stomp
Heavy angry step
Stomp is to bring your foot down hard, either to crush something underfoot or to express anger or frustration: She stomped on the spider; He stomped out of the room.
A stomp is such a step, or a lively dance featuring heavy footwork.
To stomp someone is to beat them decisively: We stomped them 42–7.
