تَيْسِيَّةٌ

Root: تيس

Full Definition

تَيْسِيَّةٌ [In him is goatishness]: some say تَيْسُوسِيَّةٌ , [in the TA تُيُوسِيَّةٌ, but the former, which is found in the L as well as in the S and K, seems, from what here follows, to be the right,] and [in like manner, for كَيْفِيَّةٌ they say] كَيْفُوفِيَّةٌ, but [ J says] I know not what is the truth thereof: the former word is preferable.
