إِوَزَّي

A manner of walking in which is a moving up and down: or leaning on one side; (K;) [the latter omitted in the CK;] at one time on the right and at another on the left [like a goose or duck]: (TA:) and the walk of a sprightly horse. (TA.) Az says that it may be of the measure إِفْعَلَى, [i. e., originally إِوْزَزَّى,] or فِعَلَّى; but Abu-l-Hasan holds the latter to be the more correct, because it is the measure of many words relating to walking; as جِيَضَّى, and دِفَقَّى. (TA.)
