(Lth, TA.) شَكِمٌ A lion: (K:) expl. in this sense as occurring in a verse of Aboo-Sakhr El-Hudhalee: or, accord. to Skr, as there used, quickly, or soon, angry; or violently angry. (TA.) شُكْمَى: see شُكْمٌ.شَكِيمٌ: see شَكِيمَةٌ, in three places. b2:  Also The loop-shaped handles of the cooking-pot. (S, K.) شَكَامَةٌ expl. by Golius as meaning “ Malitia  indolis, contumacia,” as on the authority of the KL, is app. a mistake for شَكَاسَةٌ, which I find expl. in the KL as signifying the “ being evil in nature, or natural disposition,” but not شكامة. b2: Freytag explains it as meaning also Likeness; a signification of شَكِيمَةٌ, also mentioned by him; but for this he names no authority, and I know of none.]شَكِيمَةٌ, in the لِجَام, [The bit-mouth, or mouthpiece of a pit; i. e.] the transverse piece of iron in the mouth of the horse, in which is the فَأْس [q. v.]; (S, K;) as also ↓ شَكِيمٌ: (S:) [see also لِجَامٌ, and مِسْحَلٌ:] or ↓ شَكِيمٌ is pl. of شَكِيمَةٌ, as also شَكَائِمُ and شُكُمٌ, (K, TA,) this last with two dammehs, [but written in the CK شُكْمٌ,] or [rather ↓ شَكِيمٌ is a coll. gen. n., and] شُكُمٌ is said by some to be pl. of شَكِيمٌ, not of شَكِيمَةٌ.

(TA.) b3:  and شَكَاهُ, (MA, K, TA,) inf. n. شَكْوٌ and شَكَاةٌ and شَكْوَى, (MA, TA,) is said in relation to a disease, or sickness; (MA, K, TA;) meaning He (a diseased, or sick, person) complained of it, namely, his disease, or sickness; (MA; [accord. to the TK, followed in this case, as in many others, by Freytag, it means it (i. e. disease, or sickness,) afflicted him; which I think to be indubitably a mistake;]) and ↓ تشكّى and ↓ اشتكى signify the same [as شَكَا مَرَضَهُ he complained of his disease, or sickness]: (TA:) [or] these two verbs (تشكّى and اشتكى) signify [or signify also] he was, or became, diseased, or sick. (TA in additions at the end of this art.) One says also, ↓ اشتكىعُضْوًا مِنْ أَعْضَائِهِ and ↓ تشكّى, both meaning the same [i. e., originally, He complained of a pain, or disease, in some one of his members; but generally meaning he had a complaint of, or a pain or a disease in, some one of his members; and شَكَا عُضْوًا not unfrequently occurs used in the same sense]: (S:) [thus one often says of a brute; for ex.,] As says, in explaining القُلَابُ as meaning “ a certain disease that attacks the camel,”مِنْهُ قَلْبَهُ ↓ يَشْتَكِى [he has a pain in consequence thereof in his heart; in which قَلْبَهُ, though determinate, may be considered as an explicative, like بَطْنَهُ in the phrase أَلِمَ بَطْنَهُ, q. v.]. (S in art. قلب.) b4:  One says also, هُوَ يُشْكَى بِكَذَا, meaning He is accused, or suspected, of such a thing; syn. يُتَّهَمُ بِهِ: (K: [there mentioned as though it were from أُشْكِىَ, and held to be so by the author of the TK; but it is from شُكِىَ; as though meaning he is complained of by reason of such a thing:]) mentioned by Yaakoob, in the “ Alfádh. ” (TA.) A2:  شكى فُلَانٌ [thus in my original, app. شَكَا or شَكَى,] is mentioned by Az as meaning The nails of such a one became split in several, or many, places. (TA.) 2 شَكَّتِ النِّسَآءُ, inf. n. تَشْكِيَةٌ; and ↓ اشتكت; and ↓ تشكّت; (K;) or, accord. to Th, only this last; (TA;) The women took for themselves, or made, a شَكْوَة [q. v.] for the churning of milk; (K, TA;) because it was little in quantity; the شكوة being small, so that only a small quantity can be churned in it: (TA:) or, as in the T, شكّى and ↓ تشكّى he took for himself, or made, a شَكْوَة: (TA:) [or] so ↓ اشتكى: (S:) and so ↓ اشكى. (IKtt, TA.) A2:  شَكَّى شَاكِيَهُ, inf. n. تَشْكِيَةٌ, expl. in the K as meaning كَفَّ عَنْهُ and طَيَّبَ نَفْسَهُ, is a foul mistranscription: correctly, سَلَّى شَاكِيَهُ, meaning “ He comforted his complainer, and consoled him for that which had befallen him; ” as in the Tekmileh. (TA.) 3 شاكاهُ, inf. n. مُشَاكَاةٌ, He complained of him, i. q. شَكَاهُ: or he told of his deceit, guile, or circumvention, and his vices, or faults. (TA.) 4 اشكاهُ [He made him, or caused him, to complain;] he did to him that which made him, or caused him, to have need to complain of him. (S, Msb.) He increased his annoyance and complaining. (Az, K, TA.) b2:  And He removed, or did away with, his complaint; or made his complaint to cease; (S, * Mgh, Msb, K;) he caused him to be pleased or contented [and so relieved him from his complaint]; syn. أَعْتَبَهُ مِنْ شَكْوَاهُ; (S, and Har p. 337;) i. e. أَرْضَاهُ; (Har ibid.;) and he desisted from that of which he complained: (S, * Msb:) thus it has two contr. significations. (S, K.) Hence the saying, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) in a trad., (TA,) إِلَى رَسُولِ اللّٰهِ حَرَّ الرَّمْضَآءِ ↓ شَكَوْنَا فِى صِيَامِنَا فَلَمْ يُشْكِنَا [We complained, to the Apostle of God, of the heat of the burning ground, in our fasting,] and he did not remove, or cause to cease, our complaint. (Mgh, * Msb, TA.) And [hence] one says, اشكى فُلَانًا مِنْ فُلَانٍ, meaning He took for such a one, from such a one, what pleased or contented him [and so relieved him from complaining of him]. (ISd, K, TA: omitted in the CK.) b3:  Also He told him his complaint, and the desire, or longing of the soul, that he endured. (TA.) b4:  And i. q. وَجَدَهُ شَاكِيًا [which may mean He found him to be complaining, or, as seems to be indicated by what immediately precedes it in the K, he found him to be complaining of a disease of the slightest sort]: (K:) or, as in the T, اشكى [app. meaning اشكى حَبِيبَهُ] signifies he found the object of his love, or his friend, to be complaining; expl. by صَادَفَ حَبِيبَهُ يَشْكُو. (TA.) A2:  See also 2.5 تشكّى He expressed complaint or lamentation, pain, grief, or sorrow; syn. تَوَجَّعَ; (Msb and K in art. وجع;) he made complaint or lamentation. (MA, KL.) See 1, in four places. b2:  [Hence] one says, تشكّى شَآئِى أَرْضَ كَذَا, meaning (assumed tropical:)  [My sheep or goats] forsook such a land, [as though they complained of it,] and did not go near it. (TA. [But I have substituted شَائِى for what is there written شاكى, an evident mistranscription.]) A2:  See also 2, in two places.6 تَشَاكَوْا They complained, one to another.

(TA.) b3:  Also, and ↓ شَكْوَى, and ↓ شَكَاةٌ, and ↓ شَكَآءٌ, and ↓ شَكْوَآءُ, (K,) this last mentioned by Az, (TA,) [but it is omitted in some copies of the K,] A complaint, meaning a disease, malady, or sickness.

(TA.) شَكْوَى an inf. n. of شَكَا, as also شَكْوًى; (K;) or a simple subst. [signifying Complaint]: (S, Msb:) pl. شَكَاوَى.

(JM.) b2:  and Pained; syn. مُوجَعٌ; (K, TA;) in this sense an instance of فَعِيلٌ in the sense of مَفْعُولٌ: (TA:) or causing pain; syn. مُوجِعٌ: [thus accord. to both of my copies of the S: and this appears to be correct; for it is there immediately added,] El-Tirimmáh says, وَسْمِى شَكِىٌّ وَلِسَانِى عَارِمُ [which is inconsiderately cited in the TA immediately after the former of these two explanations: I say “ inconsiderately ” because the meaning evidently is, not that thus indicated in the TA, but, My branding, or stigmatizing, by satire, (for one says وَسَمَهُ بِالهِجَآءِ,) is such as causes pain, and my tongue is vehement: or شَكِىٌّ may here have the last but one of the meanings expl. in this paragraph]: وَسْمِى is from السِّمَةُ. (S.) b3:  Also Affected with a complaint, meaning disease, malady, or sickness, [app. in an absolute sense, (see شَكْوٌ,) and also] of the least, or lightest, or slightest, sort; and so ↓ شَاكٍ. (M, K.) b4:  and i. q. ↓ مَشْكُوٌّ, (S, Msb, K,) which is a pass. part. n. of شَكَا; [and therefore signifies Complained of; and also complained to; but mostly seems to be used in the former of these senses;] as also ↓ مَشْكِىٌّ.

(TA.) شَكِّىٌّ, (thus in copies of the K,) or شُكِّىٌّ, with damm to the ش, (TA,) is mentioned in art. شك.[q. v.], and J has committed a mistake (K, TA) in mentioning it here, as Sgh has observed: (TA:) [accord. to F, it seems to be a rel. n. applied to a bit, or bridle; for it is said to be so applied in the K, as well as in the O, in art. شك, in which both explain it as meaning Difficult; and also to a skin; for immediately after asserting that J has committed a mistake, F adds,] and شَكَّى, like حَتَّى, is a town in Armenia, whence [are brought] bits, or bridles, (لُجُم,) and skins, (K,) [and SM adds that they are termed شكّيّة: but what I find J to have stated is as follows:] الشَّكِىُّ, [thus in one of my copies of the S,] or الشُكِى, [thus in the other of those copies,] in relation to weapons, is an arabicized word, and is in Turkish لَش or لَشْ. (S. [But in the JM, this last word is written, as from the S, تشن: it may therefore be correctly لَشْن, or لَشِن, which, though used in Turkish, is a Pers\. word, meaning smooth.]) شَاكٍ: see شَكِىٌّ, in two places.A2:  In the phrase رَجُلٌ شَاكِى السِّلَاحِ, (S,) which means A man whose weapon is sharp, or whose weapons are sharp, (S, K, *) Akh says that شاكى is formed by transposition from شَائِك [q. v. in art. شوك]: (S:) and accord. to Az, one says also شَاكٍ فِىالسِّلاحِ.
