Full Definition
سَتًى
is syn. with
سَدًى, relating to a garment, or piece of cloth; as also
أُسْتِىٌّ ; both signify [The warp thereof;] the contr. of
لُحْمَةٌ; like سَدًى and أُسْدِىٌّ: and
سَتَاةٌ is [the n. un. of the former, or] syn. with
سَدَاةٌ, relating to a garment, or piece of cloth: [whence,] one says to him who neither harms nor profits, مَا أَنْتَ لُحْمَةٌ وَ لَا سَتَاةٌ [lit. Thou art neither a woof nor a warp: see also a similar saying voce نِيرٌ]: (TA: [see also سَدًى:]) and
أُسْتِىٌّ signifies also ثَوْبٌ مُسْدًى or مُسَدًّى [lit. a garment, or piece of cloth, having its warp set or disposed; perhaps meaning having a good, or strong, warp; in art. اسد written, as from the L, مَسْدِىٌّ, for which I find no other authority]; so expl. by AHeyth: but accord. to others, it is what the weavers term سَتًى, as mentioned above, i. e. the warp. (TA. [See also أُسْتِىٌّ in art. است, and أُسْدِىٌّ in art. اسد and in art. سدو and سدى.])
def.2 Also i. q. مَعْرُوفٌ [as meaning A favour, benefit, benefaction, or the like]; in this sense also a dial. var. of سَدًى.
def.3 Also a dial. var. of سَدًى signifying Dates while continuing green and small; syn. بَلَحٌ.
