Description

The word town imparts a starting point to the German word Zaun, the Dutch word tuin, and the Old Norse tun.The German word Zaun comes nearest to the first significance of the word: a fence of any material.An early acquiring from Celtic *dunom (cf. Old Irish dun, Welsh commotion "post, invigorated spot, camp", dinas "city").In English and Dutch, the importance of the word assumed the feeling of the space which these wall encased, and through which a track must run.In England, a town was a little network that couldn't bear the cost of or was not permitted to assemble dividers or other bigger fortresses, and constructed a palisade or stockade instead.In the Netherlands, this space was a nursery, all the more explicitly those of the rich, which had a high fence or a divider around them (like the nursery of the royal residence of Het Loo in Apeldoorn, which was the model for the privy nursery of William III and Mary II at Hampton Court). In Old Norse tun implies a (lush) place among farmhouses, and the word is as yet utilized with a comparable importance in present day Norwegian.
