    Isn’t a two-way mirror just a window? I think you meant “one way mirror.”

      No. English is just hella stupid. 🤣

      A one-way mirror, also called two-way mirror…

        How many ways is a normal mirror, then? Do we call it a “no way mirror”?

          wouldn’t a one-way mirror only be used “one way” and a two-way mirror be used in “two ways”?

            While a no-way mirror is a mirror owned by a vampire.

        A one-way mirror is only one-way when the lighting conditions are correct. Otherwise you can see right through it from both sides

        Well I mean dictionaries. Kind of like how webster defines literally with

        Definition 1: In a literal manner such as …

        Definition 2: used in an exaggerated way to emphasize a statement or description that is not literally true or possible.
