Eavesdrop*
Just in case you weren’t aware.
Etymology (just for fun) :
eavesdrop (v.) "lurk near a place to hear what is said inside," c. 1600, probably a back-formation from eavesdropper. The original notion is listening from under the eaves of a house; the word comes via Middle English noun eavesdrop "place around a house where the rainwater drips off the roof." Related: Eavesdropping.
also from c. 1600
