@Marcelo.Maciel funny because I always knew this world

but is a english thing really

A storey (British English)[1] or story (American English)[2] is any level part of a building with a floor that could be used by people (for living, work, storage, recreation, et cetera). Plurals for the word are "storeys" and "stories" for the English (UK) and English (US) versions, respectively.

The terms "floor", "level", or "deck" are used in a similar way, except that it is usual to talk of a "14-storey building", but "the 14th floor". The floor at ground or street level is called the "ground floor" (i.e. it has no number, and the floor above it is called "first") in many places.[3] In other places, "ground floor" and "first floor" are synonymous. 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.

And as portuguese, there is the difference between "STORY" and "HISTORY".

BTW, most of people that I know use floor too. I was just thinking about which word they use to say something about the height of a building, as "this building has 80 floors". I can't remember any similar case but I'm quite sure that I've heard "pavements" once for this particular situation.
