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
