Cousin · India
veranda
A roofed, open platform along the outside of a house.
The word reached English from India, where the veranda was the shaded outdoor room of the house: a place to sit, sleep and work out of the sun and rain. From the colonial bungalow it spread across the tropics and then to houses almost everywhere.
