What is a "floorboard"?

A floorboard is a long, narrow piece of wood or other material used to cover the surface of a floor. It is typically placed side by side, with edges that fit together to create a smooth, stable walking surface. Floorboards are commonly made of hardwood, but can also be made from other materials like laminate or engineered wood. They are valued for their durability, natural appearance, and ability to withstand heavy foot traffic. Floorboards are often used in homes, offices, and other buildings to provide both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
