From Edward William Lane, An Arabic-English Lexicon (1863–1893), under the root هزأ. Digitised by the Perseus Project (Tufts); Arabic decoded from Perseus's transliteration.

هَزَأَ مِنْهُ , (K,) and بِهِ ; (S, K;) and هَزِيءَ (S, K) followed by منه and به ; (Akh, S;) but accord. to Yoo, we should say هزيء به only; not منه ; (TA;) aor. هَزَاَ , inf. n. هُزْءٌ and هُزُوءٌ (S, K) and هُزُوْءٌ (TA) and مَهْزَأَةٌ ; (S, K;) and به ↓ تهزّأ , (AZ, S, K,) and به ↓ استهزأ ; (S, K;) He mocked at, scoffed at, laughed at, derided, or ridiculed, him. (S, K.) ― -b2- The most approved reading of ↓ مُسْتَهْزِيءُونَ in the Kur, ii. 13, is with the ء fully pronounced: some alleviate it: and some read مُسْتَهْزِيُرنَ : and some مُسْتَهْزُونَ ; (but this pronunciation is of weak authority;) and say اـِسْتَهْزَيْتُ for اـِسْتَهْزَأْتُ . (Zj.) ― -b3- السَّرَابُ يَهْزَأُ بِالرَّكْبِ (tropical:) [The mirage mocks the company of riders]. (A.) -A2- هَزَأَ , (K,) inf. n. هَزْءٌ , (TA,) He, or it, broke a thing. (K.) ― -b2- A poet says, describing a coat of mail, لَهَا عُكَنْ تَرُدُّ النَّبْلَ خَنْسًا وَتَهْزَأُ بِالْمَعَابِلِ وَالقِطَاعِ [It has creases that repel the arrows, making them to recede, and break the broad and long arrow-heads, and those which are small and broad]. The ب in بالمعابل is redundant. This is the opinion of the lexicologists, except ISd, who thinks that this is an error, and that تهزأ here means “ mocks. ” (TA.) -A3- هَزَأَ اـِبِلَهُ (K; but it is thought that this may be a mistake for هَرَأَ , TA,) inf. n. هَزْءٌ ; (TA;) and ↓ اهزأ ها ; (K;) He killed his camels with cold. IAar says, that اهزأهُ البَرْدُ and اهرأهُ both signify The cold killed him. (TA.) -A4- هَزَأَ He put in motion, [or excited,) the beast on which he rode. (As, K.) -A5- هَزَأَ and هَزِيءَ He died (K) in his place, or on the spot; i. e. unexpectedly, or suddenly: (Z:) improperly objected against by Ibn-Es-Sáïgh. ('Ináyeh, MF.)
