1 شَجِىَ ذ , aor. شَجَوَ , inf. n. شَجًا, He was choked; or his throat, or fauces, became obstructed; (S, K;) بِهِ by it; i. e. a bone or the like. (K.) One says, عَلَيْكَ بِالكَظْمِ وَلَوْ شَجِيتَ بِالعَظْمِ [Keep thou to self-restraint though thou be choked by the bone]. (TA.) ― -b2- And, [hence, by a metaphor, (see Har p. 33,)] aor. and inf. n. as above, (assumed tropical:) He grieved, mourned, or lamented; or was sorrowful, sad, or unhappy: (S, Msb:) and he was, or became, anxious, or disquieted in mind. (S.) ― -b3- Also, aor. and inf. n. as above, said of a creditor (غَرِيم), He went away, عَنْهُ [from him]. (K. [See 4.]) -A2- شَجَا بَيْنَهُمْ It was, or became, an occasion of contention, or dispute, or of disagreement, or difference, between them. (K.) -A3- شَجَاهُ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. شَجُوَ , inf. n. شَجْوٌ, (S, Msb,) [app. originally syn. with أَشْجَاهُ in the first of the senses assigned to the latter in the next paragraph: ― -b2- and hence,] (assumed tropical:) It (anxiety, Msb) grieved him; or caused him to mourn or lament, or to be sorrowful or sad or unhappy; (S, Msb, K;) as also ↓ اشجاهُ . (K.) And, said of wealth (الغِنَى), inf. n. شَجْوٌ, It excited his griefs, mournings, &c., and his desire. (TA.) ― -b3- Also, and ↓ اشجاهُ , (assumed tropical:) It caused him to be mirthful, (Ks, K, TA,) and excited him. (Ks, TA.) Thus each of these verbs has two contr. significations. (K.) But MF observes that طَرَّبَهُ, the explanation here given in the K, is said by the author of the K [in art. طرب] to denote a lightness arising from joy or grief. (TA.) [Generally, however, it means as rendered above.]
