Origin

Early 20th century: from French châssis 'frame', based on Latin capsa 'box' (see case2).

  • sash from late 16th century:

    A sash is now worn over one shoulder or around the waist, but it was originally wrapped round the head. Between the late 16th and early 18th centuries a sash was a length of fine fabric twisted round the head as a turban, as in some Middle Eastern countries—the word is from Arabic. The sash in sash window is an alteration of chassis, which means ‘frame’ in French, based on Latin capsa ‘box’. Originally both French and English people pronounced the final -s of chassis. English-speakers then took this as a plural form and shortened it to form a new singular which became sash. Chassis was readopted from French in the early 20th century to mean ‘the base frame of a vehicle’. See also scarf

Rhymes

bassi, Brassey, brassie, gassy, Haile Selassie, lassie, Malagasy, Manasseh, massé, massy, sassy, Tallahassee
