, aor. ; (M, K;) or سَنِطَ, aor. , inf. n. سَنَطٌ; (Msb;) or both; (TA;) He was, or became, such as is termed سِنَاطٌ [q. v.]. (M, Msb, K.)

[The mimosa Nilotica; also called acacia Nilotica;] a قَرَظ, [or this is properly the name of its fruit,] (M, K,) which grows in the صَعِيد [or Upper Egypt], (M,) or [rather] in Egypt; [for it grows in Lower, as well as Upper, Egypt;] (K;) it is the best kind of firewood of the people of that country, who assert that it has most of fire, and least of ashes; so says AHn, on the authority of a person well informed; and he adds that they tan with it [or rather with its pods]: the word is foreign: (M:) and is also written صَنْطٌ: Sgh says that is an arabicized word, from the Indian حبذ. [So in the TA, doubtless a mistranscription. In the CK, السّنَطُ is erroneously put for السَّنْطُ.]

(S, M, Mgh, Msb, K) and سُنَاطٌ (M, O, L, CK) and ↓ سَنُوطٌ (S, M, K) and ↓ سَنُوطِىٌّ (S, K) A man (Msb) having no beard: (M, Mgh, Msb:) or having no hair at all upon his face: (M:) or having no hair upon the sides of his face [so I render كَوْسَج], and no beard at all: (S, K:) or having little hair upon the sides of the face, (Mgh, Msb,) or upon the side of the face, but not reaching to the state of the كَوْسَج: (IAar, K:) or i. q. كَوْسَجٌ: (Mgh:) or whose beard is on his chin [only], having nothing on the sides of the face: (As, K:) or this last signification, accord. to As, applies to سَنُوطٌ: (TA:) the pl. (of سَنُوطٌ accord. to some copies of the K and the TA) is سُنُطٌ (IAar, K) and أَسْنَاطٌ [which is a pl. of pauc.]: (K:) سناط is used as a sing. and pl. epithet: it is used as a pl. by Dhu-r-Rummeh. (IB, TA.)
