One says, جَلَسَ بِحِذَائِهِ [He sat in the place over against, opposite to, facing, or fronting, him; or simply he sat over against, &c.]. And هُوَ حِذَآءَكَ and and [in the CK, erroneously, حِذْوَتُكَ and حِذْيُكَ,] and [He, or it, is over against, opposite to, facing, or fronting, thee]; and هو ; i. e. بِإِزَائِكَ. (K in art. حذى.) And دَارِى حِذَآءَ and داره and حُذْوَةَ داره and داره and داره and داره and داره and داره i. e. إِزَآءَهَا [My house is over against, &c., his house]; and [so] بِحِذَآءِ داره. And رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ أُذُنَيْهِ and حِذَآءَ اذنيه [He raised his hands over against, or opposite to, not higher than, his ears]: both are correct expressions. [Hence, عَلَى حِذَآءٍ وَاحِدٍ Corresponding to, or matching, one another; uniformly disposed.]
