شحى

Root entry · 1 derived lemma

1 شَحِىَ ذ , like رَضِىَ, inf. n. شَحْىٌ, is said by ISd and in the K to be a dial. var. of شَحَا, inf. n. شَحْوٌ, i. e., as ISd says, meaning He opened his mouth; but the latter, he says, is the better known: this, however, requires consideration: for it is said in the Tekmileh that شَحَى فُلَانٌ, aor. يَشْحَى, inf. n. شَحْىٌ, is a dial. var. of [شَحَا, aor.] يَشْحُو, inf. n. شَحْوٌ, on the authority of Lth. (TA.)
