How to use "Doorstep" in context?
When we consider the word "step", what does that have to do with a doorstep? Well, a doorstep often refers to a level, horizontal surface adjacent to a building, typically one or more steps up from the street, providing a way for pedestrians to enter or exit a structure. Of course, not all doorsteps are level - in mountainous or hilly areas, for example, steps may be inclined, instead of being at a flat level. And not all doorsteps have a concrete or brick surface - some are made from sand or earth.
