Root: حت

Full Definition

حُتَاتٌ What is rubbed and scraped off; or what becomes scattered, strewn, or dispersed; or what becomes so by degrees, part after part; of a thing. A word of this class generally ends with ة; [as قُلَامَةٌ and نُجَارَةٌ &c.; but seems to be also used in the same sense: and hence the phrase,] مَافِى يَدِى مِنْهُ حُتَاتَهٌ, so in the A, but in the K حَتٌّ , There is not aught of it in my hand.
2 Also A disease that attacks the camel, so that he becomes emaciated, and his flesh and fat and colour change, and his hair falls off.
