(K.) ― -b3- It (the nose-rein) rendered him (a camel) submissive, or tractable. (TA.) 3 كَاْوَحَ See 1. ― -b2- Also كاوحهُ He reviled him, or vilified him, mutually; and treated him in an open manner (S, K) with opposition or altercation. (TA.) 4 اكاحهُ ذ He destroyed him. (T, in this art; and K in art. كيح.) See 1. 6 تَكَاوَحَا ذ They two laboured, or strove, each with the other, to do evil, or mischief. (S, K.) كَاحٌ ذ and ↓ كِيحٌ The foot, or base, (عُرْض,) of a mountain: (S, K:) [or] its face, or part facing the spectator, above its foot, or base; syn. سَنَدُ جَبَلٍ: (S:) or its foot, or base, (عرض) and most rugged part: or its سَفْح [i. q. عُرْض]; and the foot, or base, of its face; syn. سَفْحُ سَنَدِهِ: or كِيحٌ signifies the side (نَاحِيَة) of a mountain: and any rugged face of a mountain, above its foot, or base: and in some cases, the side of a valley, when it is rugged, but not unless consisting of the hardest and roughest of stones: (As, TA:) pl. of كَاحٌ, أَكْوَاحٌ; (M;) and (of ↓ كِيحٌ , TA,) أَكْيَاحٌ and كْيُوحٌ (K) and كِيَحَةٌ. (As, T.) ― -b2- أَكْيَحُ ↓ كِيحٌ A rough or rugged [foot, or base, or face above the foot or base, &c., of a mountain]; an expression similar to يَوْمٌ أَيْوَمُ; (K, art. كيح;) the latter word being a corroborative; for the سَنَد of a mountain is called كيح only because of its ruggedness and roughness. (TA.) كيحٌ ذ : see كَاحٌ.
