Glass is sometimes called a supercooled liquid because it does not form a crystalline structure, but instead forms an amorphous solid that allows molecules in the material to continue to move. However, Scientific American indicates that amorphous solids are neither supercooled liquids nor solids.

Hey !!
We know that, Glass is an Amorphous solid. Like liquids, it has a tendency to flow, though very slowly. This is evident from the fact that the glass panes in the windows of old buildings are invariably found to be slightly thicker at the bottom than at the top. This is because the glass flows down very slowly and makes the bottom portion slightly thicker.
Hope it helps you !!
