The word
window emanates from the Old
Norse vindauga, a combination
of wind and eye, construing to wind eye. It is abstracted from old norse vindauga, where
vindr represents wind and auga depicts eye. Windows in a building or house expedite the ingress of
natural light indoors. A
home is a place one covets no matter where he or she goes. A decent amount of one’s lifetime
earnings are spent on the
construction of noble housing. In the construction of a house apart from the beams, bricks, cement,
etc doors and windows play an important role. Doors are required for ingress and egress of furniture,
humans, pets, and what not
but they are not advisable to open at night or even day time all day long so for this purpose
windows were framed so
that one could enjoy the nature's essence at any given point of time at the comforts of our home and
can enjoy the natural sunlight, cool night breeze at one’s own comfort of a home.
