skjár

nafnorðkarlkyn
(the older form was ské, analogous to lé, klé, ):—a window (the opening). In old dwellings the openings were round, fitted with a hoop or frame (called skjá-grind), which had a membrane (skjall) stretched over it, and this was used instead of glass, and could be taken out at pleasure-; such windows are still found in farm-houses, all such openings being in the roof, not in the walls, 78 (init.); and when the frame was taken out, these openings served as outlets for smoke. In some instances skjár seems to be used synonymously with ljóri (); the hlið-skjár (), or ‘side-skjar,’ would then answer to the window or opening in dwellings; hristust skjáir (chimney-pot = strompr. )á húsum sem fyrir vindi hvössum, 1341; Þorbjörn þreif upp stokk ok reisti undir skjáinn ok fór þar út, 19; taka af skjána ok láta leggja út reykinn, 99 new ; ef menn sitja í húsum þeim er skjáir eru á, þá er svá ljóst inni, at hverr maðr kennir annan, 47 new ; konungr hafði gört skjá fyrir stofuna, vii. 34; fara upp á stofuna ok taka af skjáinn ( the frame), 170; hann kastaði því inn um skjáinn, ii. 81; brutu þeir stofuna um skjána, i. 168; hlið-skjár, ii. 85; hann hlörar við hliðskjáinn er á var stofunni, i. 628: the phrase, nú gengr eigi skjall á skjá, i. 384 (see skjall); krumminn á skjá, skjá, skekr belgi þrjá, a nursery rhyme.
