خَصَّهُ بِالشَّىْءِ , (S, K,) or بِكَذَا, (A, Msb,)
aor.
خَصُ3َ , (Msb, TA,) inf. n. خَصٌّ (K) and خُصُوصٌ
(S, Msb, K) and خَصُوصٌ (TA) and خَصُوصِيَّةٌ
and خُصُوصِيَّةٌ, (S, Mgh, * Msb, K,) of which last
two the former is the more chaste, (S, TA,) and
is the form mentioned in the Fs and its Exposi
tions, and the ى in it is said to be the relative
ى, and the ى which is characteristic of an inf. n.,
whereas in the latter it is said to be a characteristic
of intensiveness, but MF thinks that this requires
consideration, because the ى is also said to be,
and by some more commonly, without teshdeed,
as in كَرَاهِيَةٌ and عَلَانِيَةٌ, (TA,) and خِصِّيصَى, (S,
K,) like مِكِّيثَى, which is said to be the only other
instance of this measure, (TA,) [but some others
might be added, as دِلِّيلَى and فِخِّيرَى and قِتِّيتَى,]
and خِصِّيصَآءُ, (IAar, Kr, K,) [like مِكِّيثَآءُ,] the
former of which last two [each of which has an
intensive signification] is the chaste, and com
monly known, form, (TA,) and خُصِّيَّةٌ, or خِصِّيَّةٌ,
or خَصِيَّةٌ, (accord. to different copies of the K,)
written by Sgh with damm, (TA,) and تَخِصَّةٌ,
(Ibn-' Abbád, K,) or, as some say, خَصُوصِيَّةٌ and
خِصِّيَّةٌ [or خُصِّيَّةٌ or خَصِّيَّةٌ] are each a quasi-inf. n.,
as also خَاصَّةٌ, (TA,) He distinguished him particularly, peculiarly, or specially, i. e., above, or
from, or exclusively of, others, by the thing, or
by such a thing; he particularized him, or particularly or peculiarly or specially characterized
him, thereby; syn. فَضَّلَهُ (A, K, TA) دُونَ غَيْرِهِ,
and مَيَّزَهُ; (TA;) he appropriated, or assigned,
[the thing or] such a thing, or made it to belong,
to him alone, or in particular, or peculiarly, or
specially, exclusively of others; (Msb;) and
اختصّهُ ↓ بِهِ signifies the same; (S, A, Msb, K;)
as also ↓ اخصّهُ, (A, [but for this I know not any
other authority,]) and ↓ خصّصهُ; (A;) or this last
has an intensive signification. (Msb.) You say,
خَصَّهُ بِالُودِّ He distinguished him &c. by love, or
affection; or favoured him in preference to
another, or others, thereby. (K, TA.) As to the
saying of AZ,
إِنِ ٱمْرَأٌ خَصَّنِى عَمْدًا مَوَدَّتَهُ
عَلَى التَّنَانِى لَعِنْدِى غَيْرُ مَكْفُورِ
[If a man distinguish me above, or from, or exclusively of, others, purposely, by his love, or because of his love of me, notwithstanding distance
of each from the other, it will not be disacknowledged with me,] the meaning is, خَصَّنِى بِمَوَدَّتِهِ;
or it may be خَصَّنِى لِمَوَدَّتِهِ إِيَّاىَ [in the TA
بِمَوَدَّتِهِ, which is evidently a mistranscription];
for, says ISd, we have not heard خَصَّهُ [or rather
خَصَّ] doubly transitive. (TA.) And [hence]
خَصَّهُ بِكَذَا also signifies He gave him such a thing
in large quantity, or abundantly. (TA.) [You
say also, خَصَّهُ بِالذِّكْرِ He distinguished, &c., or
singled out, him, or it, by mention: or he particularized, peculiarized, or specified, him, or it,
thereby; he particularly, peculiarly, or specially,
mentioned him, or it. And خَصَّهُ, alone, He pointed
particularly, or peculiarly, to him, or it, in what
he said; or he meant particularly, or peculiarly,
him, or it. And خَصَّ مِنْهُ كَذَا He distinguished,
particularized, peculiarized, or specified, thereof
such a thing: and he distinguished therefrom
such a thing; he particularly, peculiarly, or
specially, excepted therefrom such a thing.] You
also say, خَصَّهُ لِنَفْسِهِ (TA) and اختصّهُ ↓ لِنَفْسِهِ (T,
A, TA) [He appropriated, or took, or chose, him,
or it, particularly, or specially, to, or for, himself; as also خَصَّ بِهِ نَفْسَهُ and اختصّ ↓ بِهِ نَفْسَهُ].
And هُوَ يَسْتَخِصُّ ↓ فُلَانًا and يَسْتَخْلِصُهُ (A, TA) [He
appropriates such a one purely to himself, exclusively of any partner; (see the latter verb;)] he
chooses such a one for himself; he appropriates
him to himself as his particular, or special, intimate; (TA in art. خلص;) both signify the
same. (S and K in art. خلص.) [And ↓ اختصّهُ
He treated him, or behaved towards him, with
partiality; was partial towards him: a signification implied by the first explanation in this art.:
and in this sense it is often used.] ＝
1-A2- خَصَّ, aor.
خَصُ3َ ,

to the Msb,] inf. n. خُصُوصٌ, [and app. خَصُوصِيَّةٌ
and خُصُوصِيَّةٌ, accord. to modern usage,] It was,
or became, particular, peculiar, or special; restricted, or confined, to one or more of persons,
places, or things; distinct, or distinguished, from
others; not common, or general; contr. of عَمَّ;
as also ↓ اختصّ: (Msb:) [each, also, followed
by لَهُ, signifies He, or it, belonged, pertained, or
appertained, to him, or it, particularly, peculiarly, specially, or exclusively; it so related to
him, or it; it was, or became, peculiar to him, or
it: see also the latter verb below.] ＝

Sgh, K;) as also ↓ اختصّ. (A, TA.)
