Meaning & usage
dormer; dormer-window (roofed projection from a sloping roof with a window at the front)
Where this word comes from
From late Middle High German gūpe. Further origin unknown. Since the word is apparently from Rhine Franconian dialects, identity with Kuppe (“top, knoll”), itself also a Central German form, is possible. The long vowel is problematic, however, though it might be due to conflation with a related word; compare Dutch kuif (“quiff, tuft of hair sticking out”), Old Norse kúfr (“knoll”). Alternatively, possibly from a group of dialectal words for "to look", which may be related to German gucken.
