  2. A wind operated device for converting wind into useable energy.

  5. A windmill in the traditional sense is a large structure with a twirling wind-generated mechanism which turns enormous stones in order to grind grain to a fine flour.

    EDIT there are still traditional windmills in operation now although they're rarities.
