, Present.TحَسُسَVerbal.Nounحَسٌّ and حِسٌّ and حَسِيسٌ; (TA, in explanation of the saying in the K that حَسَسْتُ الشَّىْءَ [in the CK erroneously

, or
, some say حَسِيتُ, and حَسَّيْتُ, (M, L, Msb, K, [in the CK حَسْتُ, which is the modern vulgar form,]) and حَسْتُ. You say, احسّهُ بِعَيْنِهِ [He perceived him, or it, with his eye]; (Ibn-Zekereeyà, TA in art. جس;) and so
. [In the present art. in the TA, it is said that حَسَّهُ بالنصل is syn. with أَحَسَّهُ: but بالنّصل is evidently a mistranscription for بِالبَصَرِ.] And it is said in the Kur [iii. 45], فَلَمَّا أَحَسَّ عِيسَى مِنْهُمُالكُفْرَAnd when Jesus ascertained their unbelief as one ascertains a thing that is perceived by the senses: or opined it; or perceived it, or became sensible of it: or saw it: or knew it, or perceived it sensibly. And in the same [xix. last verse], هَلْ تُحِسُّ مِنْهُمْمِنْ أَحَدٍDost thou see of them any one? You say also, هَلْ أَحْسَسْتَ الخَبَرَHast thou known the news? And أَحْسَسْتُ بِالخَبَرِ, and أَحْسَيْتُ بِهِ, and به, and حَسِيتُ به, I knew the news certainly. And أَحْسَسْتُ الخَبَرَ, and أَحَسْتُهُ, and
, and حَسْتُهُ, I knew somewhat of the news. And مَا أَحْسَسْتُبِاخَبَرِ, and اَحَسْتُ بِه. مَا, and ما به, and ما حَسْتُ, I knew not aught of the news.
