| lexeme | труп (trup) | |
| meaning 1 | trunk (of a tree) | Kada putujete u Australiju , Afrik i Madagaskar , možete videti drvo koje izgleda kao da je sve naopako, umesto krošnje kao da je korenje koje je nasađeno na veoma veliki trup drveta. When you travel to Australia, Africa and Madagascar, you can see a tree that looks like everything is upside down, instead of a crown it looks like the roots are planted on a very large tree trunk. |

| meaning 2 | torso | Na ovaj način, vaš trup će izgledati kraći a samim tim će vaše noge izgledati duže. This way, your torso will appear shorter and therefore your legs will appear longer. |
