شَرَطِىٌّ

Full Definition

شَرَطِىٌّ Of, or relating to, [the asterism called] the شَرَطَان and the أَشْرَاط; as also أَشْرَاطِىٌّ ; the latter being formed from the pl., because the stars thus called are regarded as composing one thing. You say, رَوْضَةٌ, meaning [A garden, or meadow, &c.,] rained upon by the نَوْء [q. v.] of the شَرَطَان. In the A we find نَوْءٌ شِرَاطِىٌّ : but probably it should be شَرَطِىٌّ.
