サッシ

noun

sash; sliding window frame

In Japanese, primarily refers to the metal frame of a sliding window or door, not a fabric sash. The English word 'sash' can also mean a fabric band, but that is not the primary meaning in Japanese.

• 新あたらしいサッシに交こう換かんしたら、部屋へやがずいぶん暖あたたかくなった。

  After replacing the window frames with new sashes, the room became much warmer.

• このマンションはサッシが古ふるくて、すきま風かぜが入はいる。

  The window sashes in this apartment are old, so drafts come in.
