The word town is related to the German word Zaun [tsown ? English] the Dutch word tuin [toin ? English], and the Norse/Norwegian tun [tun ? English]. The German word zaun comes closest to the original meaning of the word: some sort of fence of any material. It is thin and may vary from some vertical piles with only one (electric) wire, to a wooden construction that does not allow one to see through it (such as a stockade), or a safe fence around a prison or, until 1989, between East and West Germany. (Although it was called the German Wall, this name originated from the wall in Berlin, made of solid stone and later concrete construction).
