The meaning of the word stark is bare or barren
Answer The word stark has had an interesting history. Originally it meant "strong" in Old English (and a very similar word still does in German), it came to mean "utter" and then through confusion with another OE word meaning "rump" came the phrase stark naked which is an emphasised form of being naked (naked being naked, after all). Stark also has connotations of spareness and lack of detail, as in "the skyscraper stood out starkly against the backdrop of forest".
Are you talking about "stark" as in "stark raving mad"? If so, it's like downright, utter, or complete.
If it's "stark" as in the "stark reality of a deadline", it means bluntly plain.
Stark as in a "stark landscape" is extremely plain, or desolate.
