Plural of framer; multiple people who make frames or construct frameworks.
Regular English plural of 'framer,' formed by adding '-s'. Often capitalized when referring to the Founding Fathers who created the U.S. Constitution.
The Framers of the Constitution are called this because they metaphorically 'framed' government the way a carpenter frames a building—it's a clever metaphor that became so associated with these historical figures that most people forget it's originally a building term!
