stokár, or stokar (plural stokári) is a term used in Slovak language. this term is used for people, generally men who usually live in the projects in Slovakia (sídlisko in Slovak), and they're life is usually harder because they might be working class and struggling, although that doesn't apply to everybody. Some people who just live in the projects and just hang around the streets might be considered a stokár. Stokári (plural) usually hang out around the blocks, hang around the streets, but they don't do much harm other than the fact that they might paint some graffiti, sell drugs or beat yo ass... they are not gangster but definitely influenced by the gang culture and such. this is just a 'basic' explanation or an example... this term is similar with the Russian term "gopnik" or the English term "chav". the term "stokár" is highly connected with hip hop, especially Slovakian hip hop
