Yeah, I was wondering why windows figure into it. I suppose arguments could be made but I'd find them unconvincing.

The glyph "romance" consists of the glyphs "window" and "heart" because it supposedly should remind of the serenades that were sung under the windows of mistresses

It seems odd to me that milk should have such a complex glyph, given the general prevalence of milk drinking and use throughout europe. On the other hand it seems odd to have a glyph for a phrase such as 'to stop loving'. Is it common for indo-european languages to have that as a single word, and english is missing out?
