2 لَخَّصَ لخّصهُ, (A, TA,) inf. n. تَلْخِيصٌ, (S, A, K,) He explained, expounded, or interpreted, it; (S, A, K;) he made it clear; (A, K;) namely, language: (A:) تَلْخِيصٌ and تَبْيِينٌ and شَرْحٌ and تَخْلِيصٌ all signify the same: (A:) he went to the utmost point in explaining it, expounding it, interpreting it, and making it plain: namely, a thing; as also لحّصهُ. (TA.) You say, لَخِّصْ لِى خَبَرَكَ Explain thou to me thy news, or information, thing after thing. (TA.) And it is said in a trad. of 'Alee, قَعَدَ لِتَلْخِيصِ مَا ا@لْتَبَسَ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ He sat to make clear what was confused and dubious to others. (TA.) ― -b2- He made it near: [the inf. n. being explained in the TA by التقريب; but I incline to think that this is a mistranscription, for التّعْرِيبُ; and that the meaning is, he made it clear, plain, distinct, or perspicuous:] he abridged it: he restricted, or limited, himself in it, namely, a saying, and abridged of it what was needful.
