بسن
4 ابسن, said of a man, He was, or became good, or beautiful, in respect of his سَجِيَّة [i. e. natural disposition],
accord. to the copies of the
K, but correctly, as explained by
IAar, his سَحْنَة [i. e. aspect, or colour, &c.]. (
TA.) بَسَنٌ an
imitative sequent to حَسَنٌ: (
S,
M,
K:) [or it may signify Beautiful in aspect &c., from the verb above; or the verb may be from this word:] or, in the opinion of Aboo-'Alee El-
Kálee, originally بَسٌّ
inf. n., used in the sense of the
pass. part. n., of بَسَّ السَّوِيقَ, meaning “he moistened, or stirred about, the سويق with clarified butter, or with olive-oil, to complete, or perfect, its goodness; ” one of the two س s being suppressed, and ن being added; so that it means complete, or perfect. (
MF. [But this derivation seems to be extremely far-fetched.])
