صيصية

/sˤiː.sˤi.ja/

Where it comes from

Borrowed from Aramaic צִיצִיתָא (ṣīṣīṯā), צִיצְתָא (ṣīṣəṯā), derivates of a צִיצָא (ṣīṣā), equalling English tzitzit. The closest meaning is attested in Old Armenian ցից (cʻicʻ).

anything projected apt for picking or getting hold of things, a pale, picket, palisade, or horn or spur of a beast فجئتُ إليه والرماح تُنوشُهُ … كَوَقع الصياصي في النَسِيج المُمَدَّدِ
