كيت
2 كيّت, inf. n. تَكْيِيتٌ, He stuffed, or filled, a bag or other receptacle for travelling-provisions or for goods or utensils &c. (En-Nawádir, TS, K.) b2: Also, He made his travelling-apparatus light, or easy of conveyance; syn. يَسَّرَ. (S, K.) A poet says, كَيِّتْ جِهَازَكَ إِمَّا كُنْتَ مُرْتَحِلًاإِنِّى أَخَافُ عَلَى أَذْوَادِكَ السَّبُعَا [Make thy travelling apparatus light, when thou art departing on a journey; for I fear for thy droves, or troops, of camels, on account of the beast of prey]. (S.) أَكْيَاتٌ i. q. أَكْيَاسٌ, [pl. of كَيِّسٌ:] (K:) the Rájiz says, غَيْر أَعِفَّاءِ وَلَا أَكْيَاتِ [Not such as abstain from things unlawful and unbecoming, nor ingenious, or acute in mind, &c.]. (TA.) See art. س p. 1281 a. Some say, that it it is a word mispronounced: others, that it is formed by the change of س into ت, as in the case of طَسٌّ and طَسْتٌ. (TA.) كَانَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ كَيْتَ وَكَيْتَ, and كَيْت وَكَيْتِ, (AO, S, K, &c.,) and كيْتُ وَكَيْتُ, (IAth, ISd, IKtt,) i. e. كَذَا وَكَذَا, [Some of the circumstances of the case were thus and thus; or so and so; or such and such things]. (Lth, K.) The ت in كيت is originally ة; (S, K:) as in the case of ذَيْت; these two words being originally كَيَّة and ذَيَّة: (TA:) or the ت in كيت and ذيت is substituted for ى: they are originally كَيَّة and ذَيَّة; and the ة is elided, and the ى which is the last radical letter is changed into ت: so accord. to AHei; and most of the leading authorities on inflexion assert the same. (MF. voce ذَيْتَ.) See ذيت.
