L:) one says, صَرَخَ,
inf. n. صَرْخَةٌ; and ↓ اصطرخ; [He called or called out, &c.;] both meaning the same. (
S.) and صُرَاخٌ is also an

Msb,) and signifies The raising the voice, calling or calling out, crying or crying out: (
S,
A,
L,
K:) or doing so vehemently: (

TA,) which is likewise an
inf. n. of صَرَخَ: (

Mgh:) one says, صَرَخَ,
aor. ـُ (

S,
A,
Mgh,

inf. n. of this verb, as an
inf. n. [or rather quasi-
