Mgh,
Msb,) by delay, (
Msb,) is of the measure فَعْلَةٌ from أَنْشَطَ, or from نَشَطَ in the sense of انشط; or the meaning is, like the tying of the عقال; i. e., it is of short duration; but the former explanation is the more apparently right. (

As,

TA;)

As, and mentioned by
IB on the authority of
A'Obeyd,) A well of little depth, from which the bucket comes forth by means of a single pull: (
As,
S,
K:) the latter may be defended on the ground of considering إِنْشَاطٌ as originally an
inf. n., of أَنْشَطَ signifying “ he loosed, untied, or undid,” a knot “ by a single pull. ” (
TA.) أُنْشُوطَةٌ [A knot tied with a bow, or with a double bow, so as to form a kind of slip-knot; whence, in modern vulgar Arabic, عُقْدَة وَشُنَيْطَة, applied to such a tie; and شُنَيْطَة, applied to a simple slip-knot;] a knot, or tie, which easily becomes undone, or untied, like that of the running band of a pair of drawers; (
