ـعِيــشٌ: (
Msb:) the
pl. is مَعَايِشُ, (
S,
O,
Msb,)
accord. to general opinion, (
Msb,) without ء, (
S,
O,
Msb,) when formed from the original of the
sing., which is مَـ
ـعْيِــشَةٌ, of the measure مَفْعِلَةٌ; (
S, O;) or because it is from عَاشَ, so that the measure of the
pl. is مَفَاعِلُ: (
Msb:) but when it is formed from the secondary form of the
sing., it is with ء, [مَعَائِشُ,] مَفْعِلَةٌ being in this case likened to فَـ
ـعِيــلَةٌ, like as مَصَائِبُ is with ء because the ى [in its
sing.] is quiescent; but some of the grammarians hold this latter
pl. to be incorrect: (
S, O:) all the Basree grammarians hold it to be so: (
TA:) or,
accord. to some, ↓ مَـ
ـعِيــشٌ and مَـ
ـعِيــشَةٌ are from معش; and the
pl. in question is therefore of the measure فَعَائِلُ, with ء. (
Msb.)
b3: مَـ
ـعِيــشَةٌ ضَنْكٌ The punishment of the grave: (
O,
K:) so,
accord. to most of the expositors, in the

TA.) مُتَـ
ـعَيِّــشٌ One who constrains himself to obtain the means of life: (
TA:) or who has what is barely sufficient, of sustenance, nothing remaining over and above it. (
Lth,
A,
O,
K.)
