بَسَنٌ

an imitative sequent to حَسَنٌ: (S, M, K:) [or it may signify Beautiful in aspect &c., from the verb above; or the verb may be from this word:] or, in the opinion of Aboo-'Alee El-Kálee, originally بَسٌّ verbal noun, used in the sense of the pass. particle n., of بَسَّ السَّوِيقَ, meaning “he moistened, or stirred about, the سويق with clarified butter, or with olive-oil, to complete, or perfect, its goodness; ” one of the two س s being suppressed, and ن being added; so that it means complete, or perfect. (MF. [But this derivation seems to be extremely far-fetched.])
