Etymology

The word 'slatted' is derived from the noun 'slat', which has its origins in the late Middle English period, dating back to the 14th century. The term 'slat' comes from the Old Norse word 'slวซttr', meaning a splinter or a thin piece of wood. The usage of 'slatted' as an adjective emerged later to describe objects characterized by a series of narrow, flat pieces, typically wood or metal, arranged in such a way that gaps exist between them. This design is often functional, allowing for ventilation or light, as in slatted shutters or blinds, and also provides an aesthetic appeal in various products including furniture and architectural elements.
