[See also خَلِيطٌ.] You say, هُوَ مِخْلَطٌ مِزْيَلٌ [He is one who mixes in, or enters into, affairs; (and, accord. to an explanation of مِزْيَلٌ in the TA, in art. زيل, on the authority of IAth,) one who is vehement in altercation, or litigation, relinquishing one plea, or argument, and taking to another]; like as you say, هُوَ رَاتِقٌ فَاتِقٌ.
