More in--depth research proves that Spanish and Portuguese do NOT use the root word fenetre for window...my bad. Only half the romance languages reflect that...oddly enough, on the other hand, some germanic languages do...
French= Une fenêtre
Italian=una finestra
Romanian=fereastrã
Latin=fenestra
German=ein Fenster
Portuguese=uma janela
Spanish=una ventana
OB1, no one cares where you lived in Croatia.
Um... I believe that you were the one trying to guess where I lived.
