The plurals are "storeys" and "stories", respectively . </P> <P> The terms "floor", "level", or "deck" are used in a similar way, except that it is usual to talk of a "24 - storey building", but "the 13th floor". The floor at ground or street level is called the "ground floor" in many places . The words "storey" and "floor" exclude levels of the building that are not covered by a roof, such as the terrace on the top roof of many buildings . </P>
