Steep is an adjective describing something that rises or falls sharply and quickly. It usually refers to a steep slope or hill, which has a sharp, almost vertical slope that makes it hard to climb. It can also refer to a steep cliff or drop, which has a sudden, sharp drop.
Steep can be used figuratively as well. It can refer to a steep increase or decrease in a number or something, representing a large amount of change in a short time. Steep can also be used to refer to a steep price, which is a large amount of money for something.
