Full Definition

استرألتX The young ostriches became big, or advanced in age; syn. كَبِرَت, or كَبُرَت, (so in one of my copies of the S, in the other كَثُرَت [which is a mistranscription],) or كَبُرَتْ أَسْنَانُهَا.
2 And [hence,] استرأل النَّبَاتُ The plant, or herb, became tall; likened to the neck of the young ostrich.
