casement
Swinging window frame
A casement is a window hinged at the side that swings open like a door, rather than sliding up or down: She pushed open the casement to let in the morning air.
The word appears frequently in poetry and older literature, giving it a slightly romantic or archaic flavor.
Casement can also refer to the frame holding such a window.
