حك

حِكَاكٌ حك حكاك حكى [ A thing against which a beast rubs, or scratches, himself ]. The Arabs say, فُلَانٌ جِذْلٌ حِكَاكٌ خَشَعَتْ عَنْهُ الأُبَنُ (assumed tropical:) [ Such a one is a rubbingpost from which the knots have become worn down ]; meaning that he is so pruned, or trimmed, [figuratively speaking,] that nothing is cast at him but it glances off from him, and recoils. (TA.) [See مُحَكَّكٌ.] -A2- حِكَاكُ شَرٍّ: see حِكٌّ.
