"għattan" meaning in Maltese

See għattan in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Verb

IPA: /ˈaːt.tan/, /ˈaˤːt.tan/ [archaic]
Etymology: In all likelihood from Arabic. Barring irregular phonetic developments, the only possible etymon seems to be عَطَّنَ (ʕaṭṭana, “to steep skin in a septic liquid for tanning”). Semantically, this is plausible through figurative use; compare e.g. English tan, Latin macerare, older German gerben.
