Tabernacle: A small cabinet (sometimes a vessel) designed to contain the Reserved Sacrament. The tabernacle may be found built into the altar, sitting on the altar, on the retable, or it may be built into another part of the sanctuary; in the latter case, it is also known as an aumbry.

Transept: The section of a cross-shaped (cruciform) church at right angles to the nave. Where the transept crosses the main aisle is known as the crossing. Transept is also the name for the aisle in front of the first pew that separates the nave from the chancel.
