[Hence,] طَشَّ [as meaning (assumed tropical:) He sprinkled the moisture from his nose like fine rain] is said of one affected with the malady termed طُشَّة, when he blows his nose. (O.) And طُشَّ, (O, K,) with damm, (K,) He (a man) was, or became, affected with the malady termed طُشَّة: (O, K:) but Az says that the [better] known word is طُشِئَ. (TA.)

i. q. رَشَاشٌ [i. e. Such as is sprinkled, or scattered,] (K, TA) of rain: or such as is weak. (TA.) [Not to be mistaken for the pls. طِشَاشٌ and رِشَاشٌ: see طَشٌّ.] And hence, app., and, if so, tropical, Weakness of sight: whence the prov., الطَّشَاشُ وَلَا العَمَى [Weakness of sight, and not blindness].

(TA.)
