Goods; utensils and furniture of a house or tent; household goods. Same as مَتَاعٌ, or مَتَاعُ بَيْت, of whatever kind: clothes, stuffing for mattresses or the like, or outer garments [&c.].

Or, according to the M and K — but in the T “also” — all property: camels, sheep or goats, slaves, and utensils and furniture or household goods.

Or abundant property; or abundance of property. [In this last sense it is a maṣdar used as a simple substantive.]

Or what is made, or taken, for use, the same as مَتَاعٌ, not what is for merchandise.

Or what is new of the utensils and furniture of a house or tent, not what is old and worn out.

[It is a collective noun, and] the ism waḥda is with اثر; or it has no ism waḥda.

If you form a plural from اثاث you say ثَلَاثَةُ آثَّةٍ [originally أَأْثِثَة, like أَطْعِمَة, plural of طَعَام] and أُثُثٌ كَثِيرَةٌ.
