Full Definition

انصلتVII He advanced with a penetrative energy, and outstripped; syn. مَضَى, and سَبَقَ; or so انصلت فِى سَيْرِهِ [i. e., in his pace]: he outstripped; syn. تَجَرَّدَ: and he was quick, or he hastened, in his pace, or going. One says of the eagle (العُقَاب), انْصَلَتَتْ مُنْقَضَّةً [It was swift in making a stoop].
2 انصلت يَعْدُو He hastened in some measure, running: and so اِنْكَدَرَ يَعْدُو.
3 انصلتت السَّحَابَةُ The cloud was going to rain.
