(Mgh.) ― -b3- In lexicology, it means, like مُنْقَطِعٌ, (assumed tropical:) That of which the series of transmitters is interrupted: as a word &c. handed down by IDrd as on the authority of AZ [with whom he was not contemporary, without his mentioning the intermediate transmitters]: and such is not admitted [as unquestionable]; because exactness is a condition of the admission of what is transmitted, and the exactness of him who is not mentioned is not known. (Mz 4th نوع.) ― -b4- مَجَازٌ مُرْسَلٌ: see art. جوز. ― -b5- [See also the next paragraph.]

And رَسَمَ عَلَى كَذَا He wrote upon such a thing; (S, K;) and رَشَمَ is a dial. var. thereof.

(TA.) El-Aashà says, [speaking of wine,] وَصَلَّى عضلَى دَنِّهَا وَا@رْتَسَمْ وَقَابَلَهَا الرِيحَ فِى دَنِّهَا (S, M, TA,) or وَأَقْبَلَهَا, (so in some copies of the S in this art. and in art. صلو, and in the Mgh, also, in the latter art.,) i. e. [ And he exposed it to the wind, in its jar, and he prayed over its jar, ] and petitioned for it (TA in this art. and in art. صلو) that it might not become sour, nor spoil: (TA in the latter art.:) AHn says that ارتسم means he stamped its vessel with the رَوْسَم; but this saying is not valid: (M, TA:) [and Mtr, also, says that] ارتسم, here, is from الرَّوْسَمُ, and means he stamped it.
