See 5. ― -b2- مَشَى also signifies He went on, or continued, in his course of action, &c. (Mughnee voce أَنْ , in explanation of this verb as used in Kur xxxviii. 5.) ― -b3- [ مَشَى (assumed tropical:) It (money) passed; was, or became, current. ― -b4- (assumed tropical:) It (a calumny) was, or became, current. See مِيءْبَرٌ .] ― -b5- مَشَى بَنْطُهُ [His belly became moved, or in motion; it discharged itself.] (S, K, art. طلق ; &c.)
