windowpane

Clear wall section

A windowpane is a single sheet of glass fitted into a window frame.

Most windows contain multiple panes, and replacing a broken one is a common home repair task.

The word also names a flatfish found in Atlantic waters, so called because its body is thin enough to be nearly transparent.

In drug slang, windowpane refers to a small square of gelatin containing LSD.
