What does it mean Veranda?

Do you mean Verandah? A verandah is under the main roof of a house but it hasn't got external walls. It shades the house, provides protection from the rain if you are sitting outside and, in very large families, people often slept on the verandah, or families enclosed it to give them more room. Sometimes people have a verandah that goes right around the house or sometimes thay just have a front or a back verandah. Some houses don't have one at all. In Australia verandahs are good because they make a house cooler. Hope this helps, Sue.
