window sash
Noun: A window sash is the movable or fixed framework that holds the glass panes (the sheets of glass) within a window frame. It is the part of the window that contains the actual glass.
The term "window sash" specifically refers to the structural component that holds the glass. It is a key part of most traditional window designs. * The old window sash was painted shut and wouldn't open. * To clean the outside glass, you need to lift the window sash. * The carpenter repaired the rotten wood on the bottom window sash.

The word sash alone can also mean a long strip of cloth worn over the shoulder or around the waist, often as part of a uniform or ceremonial dress. This meaning is completely unrelated to window sash. * The beauty pageant winner wore a velvet sash that said "Miss Universe."
