fenestraatige

Fenestraatige is not a widely attested term in standard dictionaries or scholarly references. It appears to be a neologism or a possible misspelling derived from the Latin fenestra, meaning “window,” combined with a Dutch adjectival suffix that would yield something like “window-like.” Because of its uncertain status, there is no established, consensus definition for fenestraatige.

In practice, the term could be interpreted in a few ways depending on the context. In architectural language, fenestraatige might be used informally to describe a façade or design that is characterized by prominent or numerous windows, i.e., window-like features. In anatomical or paleontological contexts, it could be read as describing fenestrae (the openings or holes in skulls) in a way that is reminiscent of fenestrae, though the standard terminology would be fenestrae or fenestrated when referring to openings.

Because fenestraatige is not part of standard technical vocabularies, its usage should be clearly defined by the author on first use. Preferred alternatives in common practice include fenestrated or fenestrae-based terms for explicit references to openings, and window-like for non-architectural descriptions. In Dutch, more conventional terms would be vensterachtig for general window-like descriptions or vensteropening for architectural contexts; in scientific writing, fenestrae and related terms should be used.

If encountered in literature, readers should check for authorial definition or consider it a possible typographical variant of a more established term. Without clear usage data, fenestraatige remains ambiguous and nonstandard.
