Mishnah for Oholot 13:2

חַלּוֹן שֶׁהִיא לַאֲוִיר, שִׁעוּרָהּ מְלֹא מַקְדֵּחַ. בָּנָה בַיִת חוּצָה לָהּ, שִׁעוּרָהּ בְּפוֹתֵחַ טֶפַח. נָתַן אֶת הַתִּקְרָה בְאֶמְצַע הַחַלּוֹן, הַתַּחְתּוֹן בְּפוֹתֵחַ טֶפַח, וְהָעֶלְיוֹן מְלֹא מַקְדֵּחַ:

A window which is used for air, its size is the thickness of a drill. If he built a house outside it, its size is a handbreadth's space. If he put a roof in the middle of the window, the lower part is a handbreadth's space and the upper part is the thickness of a drill.
