خَاطَ, (Mṣb, TA,) first pers. خِطْتُ, (Ṣ,) aor. يَخِيطُ, (Mṣb,) inf. n. خِيَاطَةٌ, (Ṣ, TA,) or this is a simple subst., (Mṣb, TḲ,) and the inf. n. is خَيْطٌ, (TḲ,) which is said in the Ḳ to be syn. with خِيَاطَةٌ, but this last is a mistake for خِيَاطٌ as signifying “thread,” (TA,) or “a thread,” (AZ, TA,) though خِيَاطٌ is also syn. with خِيَاطَةٌ, (TA,) He sewed, sewed together, or sewed up, a garment, or piece of cloth; (Ṣ, Mṣb, TA;) as alsoخيّطهُ↓, inf. n. تَخْيِيطٌ.

مَخِيطٌ

مَخِيطٌ andمَخْيُوطٌ↓ A garment, or piece of cloth, sewed: (Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ:) the ى in the former is the و of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, changed into ى because of its being quiescent and the preceding letter's being with kesr; the letter preceding it being made movent because it and the و are quiescent after the ى has fallen out; [for by dropping the ى it becomes changed from مَخْيُوطٌ to مَخْوْطٌ;] and it is made movent with kesr [and thus changed from مَخْوْطٌ to مَخِوْطٌ, which necessarily becomes مَخِيطٌ,] in order to its being known that the letter which has dropped out is ى: some say that the ى in مَخِيطٌ is the radical, and that the letter thrown out is the و of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, in order that the word with و [for its medial radical] may be known from that with ى; [so that it is changed from مَخْيُوطٌ to مَخْيُطٌ, and then to مَخْيْطٌ, and then to مَخِيطٌ;] but the former saying is the right, because the و is a formative augment, and it is not proper that such should be thrown out.
