A house is a building that is made for people to live in. It is not a place that can be easily packed up and carried away like a
tent or moved like a caravan. If people live in the same house for more than a short stay, then they call it their "home".
Houses have many different shapes and sizes. They may be as small as just one room, or they may have hundreds of rooms.
They also come in many different shapes and may have just one level or several different levels. A big building with lots of levels
and apartments is called "a block of flats" or an apartment block.
Houses have a roof to keep off the rain and sun, and walls to keep out the wind and cold. They have window openings to let
in light, and a floor. Houses of different countries look different to each other, because of different materials and styles.
