(Har p. 139.)

And The شَخْص [or body, or bodily or corporeal form or figure or substance, such as one sees from a distance,] of a thing, (Msb, K,) whatever it be; as also طَلَالَةٌ: plural of the former as above: (K:) the شَخْص [as meaning body, or person,] of a man; as also طَلَالَةٌ: (S, O:) or, of a man, the erect شَخْص. (Msb voce جُثَّةٌ.) And ظَلَالَةٌ, with ظ, signifies the same. (O and K in article ظل.) One says, حَيَّا اللّٰهُ طَلَلَكَ and طَلَالَتَكَ, meaning [May God preserve, or save,] thy شَخْص [i. e. body, or person]. (S, O.) And حَيَّا اللّٰهُ طَلَلَكَ and أَطْلَالَكَ, meaning مَا شَخَصَ مِنْ جَسَدِكَ [i. e. May God preserve, or save, what has risen into view of thy body, or person]. (TA.)

Also A place in the صَحْن [or court] of a house, prepared for the household to sit upon: ADk says that there was a place on which to eat and drink in the فِنَاء [or yard] of every house, called the طَلَل: (Az, TA:) according to ISd, (TA,) the طَلَل of a house is, or was, like the [kind of wide bench, of stone or brick &c., generally built against a wall, called] دُكَّانَة [or دُكَّان], upon which to sit.

[In the TA it is said to mean the شِرَاع of a ship or boat; which is a mistake, as is sufficiently shown by its being there immediately added, “ hence the tradition of Aboo-Bekr, that he used to pray upon the اطلال of the ship or boat. ”]
