مَشِيدٌ ذ Plastered with شِيد; and so, as some say, ↓ مُشَيَّدٌ : (T:) or built with gypsum: (Msb:) or made with شيد, (S, A, K,) i. e. gypsum; and so, some say, ↓ مُشَيَّدٌ : (A:) or the latter signifies raised high, or made lofty; (A 'Obeyd, S, A, K;) and so the former, applied to a place, (A,) or building: (TA:) the former has this meaning in the Kur xxii. 44: (Jel:) J says in the S, Ks says, مَشِيدٌ is applied to a sing., from the saying in the Kur, [ubi suprà,] وَقَصْرٍ مَشِيدٍ; and ↓ مُشَيَّدٌ , to a pl., from the saying in the same, [iv. 80,] فِى بُرُوجٍ مُشَيَّدَةٍ: but this is a mistake: what Ks says is that مُشَيَّدَةٌ, with ة and teshdeed, is a pl. [i. e. a lexicological, not a grammatical, pl.] of مُشَيَّدٌ: (IB, K: *) or the saying of Ks [if as quoted in the S] may be expl. accord. to the opinion of those who hold that مَشِيدٌ and مُشَيَّدٌ both signify plastered with شِيد, on the supposition that the Arabs did not use مَشِيدَةٌ as applied to a pl., but only to a sing.: (Az, L:) [for] Fr says that the pass. part. n. of the unaugmented verb only is used when applied to a sing. and not denoting repetition, or muchness; but either this or the pass. part. n. of the verb of the measure فَعَّلَ may be used when applied to a sing. and denoting repetition, or muchness, and when applied to a pl.: thus you say كَبْشٌ مَذْبُوحٌ [“ a slaughtered ram ”]; but not مُذَبَّحٌ; but you may say ثَوْبٌ مُخَرَّقٌ [as meaning “ a garment in which holes have been repeatedly made, ” or “ in which many holes have been made, ” or “ much pierced with holes, ” as well as ثَوْبٌ مَخْرُوقٌ meaning “ a garment in which a hole has been made, ” or “ in which holes have been made, ”] and كِبَاشٌ مُذَبَّحَةٌ [“ slaughtered rams ”]: and hence you may say ↓ قَصْرٌ مُشَيَّدٌ ; because تَشْيِيدٌ denotes building, and the act of building is repeated, and a building becomes high by degrees. (L.)
