Livestock / Animal Husbandry / horses
English term or phrase: stalls
I need to choose the most common term for "stalls". Maybe it is: "hestestald" or "båse"? it should be a building where the horses live with special boxes for them.

Well, yes, a horse's stall is also called a "box" in English and "boks" (or "spiltov", for that matter) in Danish. However, the English source does say "stalls".
