Origin:
The term "louver" originated from the Latin word "lucerna," meaning "lamp." This is because louvers were originally used in ancient Roman buildings to ventilate and provide light to underground spaces where oil lamps were burned.
Over time, the meaning of "louver" expanded to include any type of opening with slats, regardless of its intended purpose. Louvers are now commonly used in buildings for a variety of applications, including ventilation, window coverings, and decorative elements.
