Full Definition
بِطْيَةٌ
, with kesr, is a word mentioned by Sb; but ISd says, “ I know not to what it is applied, unless
be a dial. var. of أَبْطَأْتُ, like as اِحْبَنْطَيْتُ is of اِحْبَنْطَأْتُ; in which case it is thence derived as meaning The state [of being slow, &c.]; and is not to be regarded as formed by substitution [of ى for ء], because that would be extr.: ” so in the M: it is asserted, however, in the S and the Fs and the Jámi' el-Loghah of Kz and in other lexicons, that one should not say, ابطيت, with ى, but ابطأت, with ء.
