TA;) a thing made of pieces of rag sewed together; (
Msb;) for money, (
S,
K,
TA,) and for pearls and sapphires: (
TA:) [so called] because it comprises them: (
K,
TA:) [a remark that seems to indicate a signification of كَاسَ or some other word from the same root which I do not find elsewhere pointed out: but the more probable derivation is from the Persian كِيسَهْ:] that which is tied up, of leather, and of pieces of rag, is not called thus, but is called خَرِيطَةٌ: (

S:) [whence it appears that this last word is
accord. to
J syn. with كَيِّسٌ; i. e., a simple
epithet, like its
contr. أَحْمَقُ: but it has another signification, for which see below:] or,
accord. to
Kr, كِيسَى and كُوسَى are pls. of كَيِّسَةٌ; and there are no similar instances except ضِيقَى and ضُوقَى, pls. of ضَيِّقَةٌ, and طُوبَى,

ISd holds them to be fems. of the measure أَفْعَلُ: (
TA: [see ضُوقَى in art. ضيق:]) the
pl. of كَيِّسٌ is أَكْيَاسٌ (

attribute of كَيْس ascribed to him: (

K as given in the
TA, كِيسَى and كُوسَى, each of which is originally كُيْسَى, are said to be fems. of أَكْوَسُ; but this is evidently a mistake for أَكْيَسُ:]
