Etymology
The word street has its origins in the Latin strata (meaning "paved road"); it is thus related to stratum and stratification. Old English applied the word to Roman roads in Britain such as Ermin Street, Watling Street, etc. Later it acquired a dialectical meaning of "straggling village", which were often laid out on the verges of Roman roads. In the Middle Ages, a road was a way people travelled, with street applied specifically to paved ways.
