Abstract(s)
An answer to the question how different languages have handled form and meaning of concepts that in Dutch vocabulary became tuin, gaard, haag, park, laan, dreef, terras. We start in the Dutch tuin [garden] inside a fence, German Zaun being the fence itself and English town, which is a whole city. Dutch gaard has a lot of relatives in European languages. After a walk through hagen [hedges], lanen [lanes], dreven [alleys] all over Europe, we land in Amsterdam "op een terrasje van het Leidse plein ..." [on a terrace at Leiden square ...].
