Hoop can translate to heap, as in heap of dung, leading to poo. It's used for poo, mostly for children. 'Heb je een hoopje gedaan?' translates to 'Did you make a little poo?'

My Dutch friend always chuckles when I use the English word 'worst' when I talk to her, as it means 'sausage' in Dutch. :lol:
