And the garment became dirty, like 'radiya', it becomes dirty, 'sakhā': it became dirty.

Al-Azhari added: (and became grimy; and it is 'sakh', like 'am').

والاسم: الصخاة، وهو الدرن

And the noun is: 'al-sakhāh', which is the grime.

وربما جعلت الواو ياء لأنه بني على فعل يفعل

And perhaps the 'waw' was made a 'ya' because it is built on the pattern 'fa'ala yaf'alu'.

والصخاة؛ وفي نسخة التهذيب بالمد، ومر للمصنف في سخي بالمد أيضا فما هنا غلط؛ بقلة ترتفع على ساق لها كهيئة السنبلة، فيها حب كحب الينبوت، ولباب حبها دواء للجروح؛ والسين فيها أعلى

And 'al-sakhāh'; and in the recension of Al-Tahdhib it is with a long vowel, and the author previously mentioned in 'sakhi' with a long vowel as well, so what is here is an error; it is a herb that rises on a stalk like an ear of grain, containing seeds like the seeds of the 'yanbut', and the pulp of its seeds is medicine for wounds; and the 's' in it is more prominent.
