Jalousie window

A jalousie window (UK: /ˈdʒælʊziː/, US: /ˈdʒæləsiː/), louvered window (Australia, New Zealand, Pacific Islands, Southeast Asia, United Kingdom), jalousie, or jalosy is a window composed of parallel glass, acrylic, or wooden louvres set in a frame. The louvres are joined onto a track so that they may be tilted open and shut in unison to control airflow, usually by turning a crank.

For the tango song, see Jalousie 'Tango Tzigane'. For the song by Priscilla, see Jalousie (Priscilla song).
