Scoop means: Any cup-shaped or bowl-shaped tool, usually with a handle, used to lift and move loose or soft solid material..

scoop means: Any cup-shaped or bowl-shaped tool, usually with a handle, used to lift and move loose or soft solid material.. Register: neutral, standard English. A common learner mistake is using the word in a register it does not fit, or assuming a single global meaning; native speakers immediately notice when slang appears in formal contexts, so always check the surrounding register before producing it yourself.
