Root: طرو

Full Definition

إِطْرِيَةٌ A sort of food, called in Pers. لَا خِشَهْ; [i. e.] a certain food, like threads, made of flour; an explanation necessarily implying that it is what is called in Egypt غَزْلُ البَنَاتِ: accord. to Sh, a thing made of softened starch; and said by Lth to be a food made by the people of Syria; a word having no n. un.; and what these two say indicates that it is what is called كُنَافَة: Lth and Z mention the word as pronounced also with fet-h; but Az says that the pronunciation with fet-h is incorrect.
