inf. n. دَأْدَأَةٌ and دِئْدَآءٌ, He (a camel,
S) ran (عَدَا) most vehemently, (
S,

TA,) going a pace quicker than that termed عَنَقٌ [
q. v.]: (
TA:) or hastened, or sped, and ran, or rose in his running;
syn. أَسْرَعَ وَ أَحْضَرَ: (
K:)
accord. to
AA, ↓ دَأْدَآءٌ is [a
subst., or quasiinf.
n., signifying] a quick pace or manner of going: and [the
inf. n.] دَأْدَأَةٌ is
syn. with إِحْضَارٌ: and in the Nawádir [
app. of Aboo-'Amr EshSheybánee] it is said that دَوْدَأَ (
inf. n. دَوْدَأَةٌ) and تَوْدَأَ (
inf. n. تَوْدَأَةٌ) and كَوْدَأَ (
inf. n. كَوْدَأَةٌ) are
syn. with عَدَا; and that دَأْدَأَةٌ and دِئْدَآءٌ signify a camel's proceeding with short steps, at a rate quicker than that of the pace termed حَفَدٌ [
q. v.]:
accord. to the
Kf, these two words signify the going a pace quicker than that termed خَبَبٌ [
q. v.], not so quick as that termed رَبَعَةٌ [
q. v.]. (
TA.) You say, دَأْدَأَتِ الدَّابَّةُ The beast ran a pace quicker than that termed عَنَقٌ. (
