Defenestration is a word for the act of throwing something or someone out of a window. Yes, there's actually a word for that.
Fenestra is the Latin word for window. So that's how we came up with defenestration, the frighteningly specific word for throwing someone out a window. Perhaps you've heard of the famous Defenestration of Prague, which helped launch the 30 Years' War? If not, don't worry. This isn't word you'll need to use very often, unless there are a lot of people and things being tossed out of the windows in your life.
