different between storey vs lamina
storey
English
Alternative forms
- story (US)
Etymology
From Middle English story, via Medieval Latin historia (“narrative, illustraton, frieze”) from Ancient Greek ??????? (historí?, “learning through research”), from ??????? (historé?, “to research, inquire (and record)”), from ????? (híst?r, “the knowing, wise one”), from Proto-Indo-European *weyd- (“to see, know”). The current sense arose from narrative friezes on upper levels of medieval buildings, esp. churches.
An alternative etymology derives Middle English story from Old French *estoree (“a thing built, building”), from estoree (“built”), feminine past participle of estorer (“to build”), from Latin instaurare (“to construct, build, erect”), but this seems unlikely since historia already had the meaning "storey of a building" in Anglo-Latin.

Usage notes
The terms floor, level, or deck are used in a similar way, except that it is usual to talk of a “14-storey building”, but “the 14th floor”. The floor at ground or street level is called the ground floor in many places. The words storey and floor exclude levels of the building that are not covered by a roof, such as the terrace on the top roof of many buildings.
