Msb, K:) and he dressed up to him an affair [in false colours]: (Msb:) or he acted towards him with dissimulation: pretended to him the contrary of what he conceived in his mind: (A, K:) but this is a needless addition, for it is the same as the first explanation (TA:) as also ↓ غشّشهُ , (K,) inf. n. تَغْشِيشٌ: (TA) or this latter has an intensive signification: it is said to be derived from غَشَشٌ, signifying “ a turbid drinking-place, ” (TA:) It is said in the story of Umm-Zara, accord. to one relation, ↓ لَا تَمْلَأُ بَيْتَنَا تَغْشِيشًا , said by some to be from الغِشُّ, and by others to be from [a usage of] التغشيش as signifying النَّمِيمَةُ [app. here meaning the embellishing speech with falsehood]: but accord. to the approved relation, it is [تَغْشِيشًا] with the unpointed letter. (IAth.) [See art. عش.] ― -b2- [Also He made it to seem what it was not; falsified it; counterfeited it; adulterated it: so as used often by post-classical authors; and so, probably, in classical times also; see its pass. part n., below.] -A2- غَشَّ صَدْرُهُ, aor. غَشِ3َ , [inf. n., probably. غِشٌّ, q. v.,] His bosom concealed enmity and violent hatred; or bore rancour, malevolence, malice, or spite, (TA,) 2 غَشَّ3َ see the preceding paragraph, in two places. 4 اغشّهُ ذ , inf. n. إِِغْشَاشٌ, He made him to fall into dishonest, or insincere, conduct, or advice or counsel; into dissimulation; or the pretending the contrary of what he conceived in his mind. (TA.) ― -b2- And أَغْشَشْتُهُ عَنْ حَاجَتِهِ I prevented him from obtaining the object of his want; syn. أَعْجَلْتُهُ. (IKtt, K.) 8 إِِغْتَشَ3َ see the next paragraph, in two places. 10 استغشّهُ ذ (S, K) and ↓ اغتشّهُ (K, TA) He reckoned him, or deemed him, dishonest, or insincere, in action, or advice or counsel; contr. of اِسْتَنْصَحَهُ (S, K) and اِنْتَصَحَهُ; (K;) or, [which means the same,] i. q. عَدَّهُ غَاشًّا: (TA:) or he imagined in him dishonest, or insincere, conduct, or advice or counsel; dissimulation; or the pretending the contrary of what he conceived in his mind. (K.) A poet says, “ لَكَ نَاصِحٌأَيَا رُبَّ مَنْ تَغْتَشُّهُ
وَمُسْتَنْصَحٍ بِالْغَيْبِ غَيْرُ أَمِينِ
” [O man, many a one whom thou reckonest dishonest in action, or advice, is honest therein to thee; and (many a) one who is reckoned honest in action, or advice, in that which is beyond the reach of perception, is not faithful]. (TA) غَشٌّ ذ , (K, TA,) of the measure فَعْلٌ, or it may be originally of the measure فَعِلٌ, (TA,) applied to a man, (K, TA,) i. q. عَظِيمُ الشَّرَهِ [i. e. Very greedy]; not عظيم السُّرَّةِ, as in some copies of the K; nor عظيم الشِّرَّةِ, as in other copies: a rájiz says, “ لَيْسَ بِغَشٍّ هَمُّهُ فِيمَا أَكَلْ
” [He is not one who is very greedy; whose care, or solicitude, is in respect of what he has eaten]. (TA) غِشٌّ ذ Dishonest, or insincere, conduct, or advice or counsel: (Msb, K:) and the embellishment of an affair [with false colours]: (Msb:) or dissimulation; pretence of the contrary of what one conceives in his mind. (K.) [See also 1.] ― -b2- And Rancour, malevolence, malice, or (??) (K.) ― -b3- [Also Adulterating alloy in coin (See حُمْلَانٌ.) ― -b4- And Adulterated, or counterfeit, coin. (See زَغَلٌ.)] غَشَشٌ ذ A turbid drinking-place: (Az, IAmb, Sgh, TA:) الكَدِرُ المَشُوبُ in the K is a mistake: the right explanation of الغَشَشُ being المَشْرَبُ الكَدِرُ, which is that given by Az and IAmb and Sgh. (TA.) غَشَاشٌ ذ : see the next paragraph. غِشَاشٌ ذ , applied to a drinking (شُرْبٌ), Little in quantity, (K, TA,) because of turbidness: (TA: [in which it is said to be applied in like manner to a day, يوم; but I think that this is a mistranscription for نَوْمٌ, i. e. sleep:]) or hasty. or not wholesome; (K, TA;) because the water is not clear. (TA.) -A2- And The beginning of the darkness: and the end thereof. (K.) -A3- نَقِيتُهُ غِشَاشًا, (T, S, K,) and ↓ غَشَاشًا , (K,) I met, or found, him, or it, in haste; (T, S, K:) and so على غشاش: (T, TA:) or at sunset; (Lth, K;) but Az disallows this: (TA:) or in the night; (K;) which is nearly the same as what Lth says.

(K.) You say, طَعَامُ فُلَانٍ مَغْشُوشٌ أَعْلَاهُ يَابِسٌ وَأَسْفَلُهُ مَرْشُوشٌ [The wheat of such a one is made to seem what it is not: it upper part is dry, and its lower part is sprinkled]. (A.) And لَبَنٌ مَغْشُوشٌ Milk mixed with water. (Mgh, Msb.) And فِضَّةٌ مَغْشُوشَةٌ Silver mixed with copper or brass. (TA.)
