رَيَيْتُ andرَيَّيْتُ↓, inf. n. of the former رَىٌّ and of the latter تَرْيِيَةٌ, are both of them verbs relating to الرَّايَةُ: (T:) you say,رَيَّيْتُ↓ الرَّايَةَ [and رَيَيْتُهَا] I made the رَايَة [q. v.]: (M, TA:) the imperative of رَيَيْتُ is اِرْيَهْ, and that ofرَيَّيْتُ↓ is رَيِّهْ: and the pass. part. ns. are مَرْيِىٌّ↓ andمُرَىٌّ↓, each applied to a banner. (T.)

see 1, in three places.

You say also, رَيَّيْتُ رَآءً I made a ر; (M;) or I wrote a ر. (TA in باب الالف الليّنة.)

أَرْيَيْتُ الرَّايَةَ; accord. to Lḥ, أَرْأَيْتُهَا, [and so in the Ḳ, (see 1 in art. رأى, near the end of the paragraph,)] but [ISd says,] I hold that this is anomalous, and that it is properly only أَرْيَيْتُهَا; I stuck, or fixed, [into the ground,] the banner, or standard. (M, TA.)

اِرْتَيْتُهُ, [as though a contraction of اِرْتَيَيْتُهُ,] for اِرْتَأَيْتُهُ: see رَأَى, first signification.

اِسْتَرَيْتُهُ, [as though a contraction of اِسْتَرْيَيْتُهُ, like as اِسْتَحَيْتُ is a contraction of اِسْتَحْيَيْتُ,] for اِسْتَرْأَيْتُهُ: see رَأَى, first signification.

رَايَةٌ, (T, Ṣ, M, Mṣb, Ḳ,) and رَآءَةٌ, mentioned by Sb on the authority of Abu-l-Khattáb, the ا of رَايَةٌ, though a substitute for the medial radical, [i. e. ى,] being likened by him to the augmentative ا, and therefore the final radical is made ء, like as is done in the case of سِقَآءٌ, &c., (M,) A banner, or standard, (T, Ṣ, M, Mṣb, Ḳ,) of an army: (Mṣb:) accord. to some, (Mṣb,) originally with ء, [see رَأْيَةٌ, in art. رأى,] though pronounced by the Arabs without ء; (T, Mṣb;) but others deny this, and say that it has not been heard with ء: (Mṣb:) pl. رَايَاتٌ (M, Mṣb, Ḳ) and [coll. gen. n.] رَاىٌ↓.
