      Werewolf is a contraction of the Anglo-Saxon word ‘were’–which means man–and wolf; 'werewolf, man wolf.

      Source: I watched Prisoner of Azkaban last night.

      Warehouse, on the other hand, is literally a “house of wares”.

        Is it really a contraction if it’s just two words stuck together? Pretty sure a contraction is shortened.

          Those are Snape’s words, not mine. I suppose the proper term is Compound.

          The apparent scale is terrible because of the boxes and roll up door, but there is a human sized door and stairwell on the right for a warehouse that would make it far larger than the house.

        Werewolves turns from human to werewolf when there’s a full moon.

        The house turned into a warehouse.

      Apparently the house turns to a warehouse in a full moon. Took me forever to figure out because I kept trying to figure out how it relates to Loss.
