The surface you walk on inside a building, or one of the levels in a multi-story structure.
Where the word comes from
From Old English *flōr*, meaning the ground or foundation of a building. This came from Proto-Germanic *flōraz*, which may be related to Old Norse *flōr* (floor) and ultimately traces back to an Indo-European root meaning "flat" or "broad."
