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

قَرْطَسَ , (Msb, K,) inf. n. قَرْطَسَةٌ , (Msb,) He (an archer) [and it (an arrow)] hit the قِرْطَاس [or target]. (Msb, K.) It is also allowable to say, قَرْطَسَتِ الرَّمْيَةُ The shot went right to the قِرْطَاس . (Msb.)

(Sgh, K.) ― -b7- And A young she-camel. (IAar, K.)

دَابَّةٌ قِرْطَاسِيَّةٌ A beast of carriage in whose whiteness is no mixture of any other colour. (K.)

مُقَرْطِسٌ An archer [and in like manner an arrow] hitting the قِرْطَاس . (Msb.) And رَمْيَةٌ مُقَرْطِسَةٌ A shot going right to the قِرْطَاس . (TA.)
