    WHAT DOES DOOR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

    door

    Door

    A door is a moving structure used to block off, and allow access to, an entrance to or within an enclosed space, such as a building or vehicle. Similar exterior structures are called gates. Typically doors have an interior side that faces the inside of a space and an exterior side that faces the outside of that space. While in some cases the interior side of a door may match its exterior side, in other cases there are sharp contrasts between the two sides, such as in the case of the vehicle door. Doors normally consist of a panel that swings on hinges or that slides or spins inside of a space. When open, doors admit people, animals, ventilation, and light. The door is used to control the physical atmosphere within a space by enclosing the air drafts, so that interiors may be more effectively heated or cooled. Doors are significant in preventing the spread of fire. They also act as a barrier to noise. Many doors are equipped with locking mechanisms to allow entrance to certain people and keep out others. As a form of courtesy and civility, people often knock before opening a door and entering a room.

    10 QUOTES WITH «DOOR»

    Famous quotes and sentences with the word door.

    I’m at least getting my foot in the door as far as doing straight dramatic parts, which no one would have ever considered me for in the ’80s.

    But first, the news: The House of Commons was sealed off today after police chased an escaped lunatic through the front door during Prime Minister’s question time. A spokesman at Scotland Yard said it was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

    Country radio certainly widens the boundaries of what I can do. Other artists may do something more edgy that gets on radio and that opens the door for me to be more edgy, I think.

    My door was open part of the time, and part of the time I tried to get a nap and their voices annoyed me, and I closed it. I kept it open in summer more or less, and closed in winter.

    Everybody always says that I’m the girl next door, which makes me think that y’all must have a lot of weird next-door neighbours.

    I love shutting my front door and being at home with just my dog and me. That’s when I’m happiest.

    I just love the storyline, I thought it was hilarious — I loved that part when we opened the door, we all look ahead and we have to look down and see that we’re actually dealing with this little boy who did this horrible thing of ordering a wife through e-mail.
