تَرْكَضَى

Root: ركض

Full Definition

تَرْكَضَى and تِرْكِضَآءُ, the former incorrectly written in the K تَرْكَضَآءُ, [or, in some copies, تَرْكُضَآءُ, and the latter in one copy written تَرْكِضَآءُ,] are there said to be used as examples by the grammarians, but not explained; and the author offers his opinion that they are syn. with رَكْضٌ: but this is a strange defect: for AHei explains them as signifying A certain gait, in which is a proud and self-conceited air, with an affected inclining of the body from side to side: and he asserts the ت to be augmentative: and in the L they are expl. as signifying a particular kind of gait: or meaning as above.
