The word 'warehouse' is derived from the Old English word 'weohus', which can be translated as 'a building for storing and protecting things' or 'a place for keeping and preserving goods'. The word 'weohus' is composed of two Old English words: 'weoh' (which means 'trouble', 'care', or 'worry') and 'hus' (which means 'house' or 'building').
