Latin Blog 2 Modern Culture

I was watching the movie Fantastic beasts and where to find them. One scene in the movie was when the main protagonist Newt was chasing after an animal he lost. When the animal snuck into a shop, he shouted "Finestra" and the shop window shattered into pieces. I looked this word up on Latin Is Simple and it means window. .In the wiki it said it was a combination of fini and finestra, but that is incorrect because finnio means to finish not finni. This literally means in Latin to finish window, withch would make sense because that is exactly what Newt did. In the bottom of this post I have linked the website for the spell finestra, and website fro the Latin word as well.

This is a gif from the wiki page as well
