[See Kur, xxxvi. 67.] b2: مَسَخَ شِعْرًا He took and transformed poetry; accord. to the most common usage, by the substitution of what is synonymous with the original, wholly or partly; but sometimes by altering the meanings.

مَسْخٌ and ↓ مَسِيخٌ, (L, K,) [the former originally an inf. n., and therefore used as sing. and dual and pl. without alteration, though مُسُوخٌ is used as a pl. by late writers, (see De Sacy's Chrest. Ar., ii. 273,)] the latter of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, (L,) Transformed, or metamorphosed, into a worse, or more foul, or more ugly, shape. (L, K.)

[See Kur, ii. 61.] (L, from a trad.) b2: Also, the ↓ latter, Deformed; rendered ugly in make, or form. (K.)

(S, L.) مَسَخٌ Leanness of the arm, between the shoulder and the elbow. (L.) مَسِيخٌ: see مَسْخٌ.

مَاسِخِىٌّ A bow-maker. (S, L, K.) AHn says, that مَاسِخَةُ, a man of the tribe of Azd, of Es-Saráh, is asserted to have been a bowmaker: and Ibn-El-Kelbee says, that he was the first of the Arabs who made bows; that the people of Es-Saráh who made bows and arrows were numerous, because of the abundance of trees in their district, and hence every bowmaker in after times received the above appel-lation. (L.) b2: مَاسِخِيَّةٌ (L, K) and مَاسِخِيَّاتٌ (S, L) Bows: so called in relation to the abovementioned bow-maker, Másikhah of the tribe of Azd: (S, L, K:) Másikhah was his surname, and his name was Nubeysheh the son of El-Hárith, one of the sons of Nasr the son of Azd. (TA.) هُوَ أَمَسَخُ مِنْ لَحْمِ الحُوَارِ [He, or it, is more tasteless, or insipid, than the flesh of the newborn camel]: i.e., he, or it, has no taste. A proverb.

(T.) [Accord. to the K, it also signifies A grave: but this is evidently a mistake, which seems to have arisen from a misunderstanding of a statement by ISd, who says,] Aboo-Dhu-eyb uses it metaphorically in relation to a grave, calling it [i. e. the grave] a well, in his saying, فَكُنْتُ ذَنُوبَ البِئْرَ لَمَّا تَبَسَّلَتْ وَسُرْبِلْتُ أَكْفَانِى وَوُسِّدْتُ سَاعِدِى

(M.)
