Full Definition
طِشَّة
is said in the K to signify A young child; its author having app. understood a young child to be meant thereby in a trad. respecting the [plant called] حَزَاة, in which it is said, يَشْتَرِيهَا
أَكَايِيسُ الصِّبْيَانِ لِلطِّشَّةِ [evidently meaning, Intelligent children purchase it for the malady termed
طِشَّة, this word being doubtless either a dial. var. of طُشَّة, or a mistranscription]: that طشّة here denotes children is refuted by another relation of the trad., يَشْرَبُهَا أَكَايِيسُ النِّسَآءِ لِلطُشَّةِ [i. e. intelligent women drink a preparation of it for the
طُشَّة].
