(S, K.) 3 سانتوا الأَرْضَ They sought after the herbage of the land, doing so diligently, or with labour or perseverance, or time after time. (M, K.) 4 اسنــتوا They experienced drought, or barrenness: (S, M, A, K:) derived from سَنَــةٌ; the و being changed into ت, [for سَنَــةٌ is originally سَنْــوَةٌ, or, accord. to one dial. سَنْــهَةٌ,] to distinguish between this verb and أَــسْنَــى as signifying “ he remained in a place a year: ” or, as Fr says, they imagined the ه [meaning ة, in سَنَــةٌ,] to be a radical letter, finding it to be the third letter, and therefore changed it into ت: (S:) accord. to Sb, the ت [in أَــسْنَــتَ] is substituted for the ى [in أَــسْنَــى]; and there is no instance of the like except ثِنْتَانِ [in which the ت is substituted for the final radical, ى], (M in the present art.,) and in words of the measure اِفْتَعَلَ [as اِتَّسَرَ for اِيتَسَرَ]. (M in art. ثنى.) 5 تَــسَنَّــتَهَا [He married her, or took her as his wife, he being an ignoble, or a low-born, but rich, man, and she being a noble, or high-born, but poor, woman; or] he, an ignoble, or a low-born, man, married her, a noble, or high-born woman, because of the paucity of her property and the abundance of his property. (S) And تــسنّــت كَرِيمَةَ آلِ فُلَانٍ He married the noble or highborn, woman of the family of such a one in the year of drought, dearth, or scarcity.
