Etimología (Inglés)

Cognado con inglés: window

In summary

18th century, from Wind (“wind”) + Auge (“eye”), a calque of Old Norse vindauga and its descendants, which include English window.
Old High German had ougatora (literally “eye-door”, cognate with Old English ēagduru), but even this is a hapax, having already been displaced by fenstar.
