Origin & History

From two + storey (British spelling), where storey comes from Old French estorée/estorie, related to Latin historia; in architecture it came to mean a level of a building.

'two' + 'storey' (ब्रिटिश वर्तनी) से बना; 'storey' का स्रोत पुरानी फ़्रांसीसी estorée/estorie माना जाता है, जिसका संबंध लैटिन historia से है; वास्तुकला में इसका अर्थ भवन का एक तल/मंज़िल हो गया।
