Defenestration
For the heavy metal band, see Defenestration (band). Defenestration, from the Latin  (from; out of) and (window or opening), is the act of throwing someone or something out of a window. The term was coined around the time of an incident in Prague Castle in the year of 1618. In 2004, Merriam-Webster's dictionary users named "defenestration" as one of their favorite words of the year.
