Root: ثط

Full Definition

أَثَطُّ , and its fem. ثَطَّآءُ: see ثَطٌّ, in four places.
2 الثَّطَّآءُ also signifies The spider: or another creeping thing, that stings, or bites, vehemently: this is from Lth, as in the O and L: but in the Tekmileh we find الثَّطَّآءُ, like شَفَّآء, [app. a mistake for الثِّطَآءُ, like شِفَآء,] a certain small creeping thing: or, as some say, it is الثَّطَا, of the measure of قَفًا.
