جص
2 جصّص He plastered a building with جِصّ [or gypsum]: (
Mgh,
K:) or he made a house therewith: (
Msb:)
i. q. قَصَّصَ, (
S,
TA,) which is of the
dial. of El-Hijáz. (
TA.) جِصٌّ (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K) and جَصٌّ (
S,
Mgh,
K,) but the former is the more chaste: (
TA, from an
Expos. of the
Fs:) the latter is disapproved by
IDrd, and disallowed by
ISk; (
TA;) and it is said in the
Bári', on the authority of
AHát, that the latter is the form used by the vulgar, and the former is that which is correct: (
Msb:) [Gypsum; a certain substance] with which one builds, (
S,) or plasters; (
Mgh;) well known: (
Msb,
K:) arabicized; (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K;) because ج and ص do not occur in any Arabic word; (
Msb;) or,
accord. to
Az, there are some [Arabic] words in which they both occur, as has been mentioned in art. اجص: from كَجْ (
Mgh,
K, [in the
CK كَچْ]) or, as some say, گَچْ; which are Persian: (
TA:) in the
dial. of the people of El-Hijáz, قصّ [i. e. قِصٌّ or قَصٌّ]. (
Lth,
TA.) [The
n. un. is with ة: see art. قص.]
جَصَّاصٌ A preparer of جِصّ [or gypsum]. (
S,
K.) جَصَّاصَاتٌ [
pl. of جَصَّاصَةٌ] Places in which جِصّ [or gypsum] is made. (
K.)
