Full Definition
ضَاغِثٌ
One who hides himself in a thicket or the like, and frightens boys by a sound reiterated in his fauces: the author of the K, following Sgh in the TS and O, and Az in the T, says that this is a mistake, and that the word is correctly written with ب [i. e. ضَاغِبٌ]; but IF and IM and others write it as in the S.
