اسْكَاتٌ

The temperate days in the latter, or last, part of the صَيْف [apparently here meaning summer]. (K.)

Remains of anything: (K:) as though plural of سُكْتَةٌ, before mentioned. (TA.)

Also, (K,) or أَسْكَاتٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ, (IAar, Lh,) Sundry, or scattered, parties, or classes, of people: (IAar:) or i. q. أَوْبَاشٌ [i. e. a medley, or mixed multitude; or the lowest or basest or meanest sort, or refuse, or riffraff]: (Lh, K:) IAar does not assign to it a singular: some say that its singular is سكت [apparently سَكْتٌ]; but this demands consideration. (TA.)
