أَكْيَاتٌ

Root: كيت

Full Definition

أَكْيَاتٌ i. q. أَكْيَاسٌ, [pl. of كَيِّسٌ:] the Rájiz says, غَيْر أَعِفَّاءِ وَلَا أَكْيَاتِ [Not such as abstain from things unlawful and unbecoming, nor ingenious, or acute in mind, &c.]. See art. س p. 1281 a. Some say, that it it is a word mispronounced: others, that it is formed by the change of س into ت, as in the case of طَسٌّ and طَسْتٌ.
