درق
دَرَقٌ: see what next follows.
دَرَقَةٌ
i. q. حَجَفَةٌ, (
S,
K,
TA,) or تُرْسٌ, (
Mgh,) [i. e. A shield,] made without wood and without sinews: (
Mgh,
TA:) or made of skins sewed one over another: (
ISd and
TA voce حَجَفَةٌ,
q. v.:)
pl. ↓ دَرَقٌ, (
S,
K,) [or rather this is a
coll. gen. n.,] and [the
pl. is] أَدْرَاقٌ [a
pl. of pauc.] and دِرَاقٌ; (
K;) this last mentioned by
IDrd, who says, they are made of the skins of beasts found in the country of the Abyssinians, (
TA,) [as are shields thus called in the present day: they are made of the skin of the hippopotamus, and of other pachydermatous animals; and sometimes of the skin of the crocodile; generally oval, with a large protuberance in the middle, behind which is the handle, and between a foot and a half and two feet in length.]
A2: Also A خَوْخَة [here meaning sluice] in a rivulet: an arabicized word, from [the Persian] دَرِيچَهْ. (
K,
TA.) This is what is meant by the saying of the lawyers, that the repairing of the درقة is incumbent on the owner of the rivulet. (
TA.) دِرَّاقٌ: see what next follows.
دِرْيَاقٌ (
S,
K) and دَرْيَاقٌ (El-Hejeree,
K) and ↓ دِرْيَاقَةٌ and ↓ دَرْيَاقَةٌ (
K) and ↓ دِرَّاقٌ, (
Fr,
TA,) with kesr, like دِنَّارٌ &c., not دَرَّاقٌ, as it would seem to be from the manner in which it is mentioned in the
K, (
TA,) [and as it is written in the
CK and my
MS. copy of the
K,]
i. q. تِرْيَاقٌ [
q. v.]. (
S,
K.)
b2: Also, (
K,) or ↓ دِرْيَاقَةٌ, (
TA,) (
tropical:) Wine; (
K,
TA;) as being likened to ترياق [properly so called: a meaning also borne by تِرْيَاقٌ and تِرْيَاقَةٌ]. (
TA.) دِرْيَاقَةٌ and دَرْيَاقَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places.
دَوْرَقٌ A certain measure for wine, or beverage, (
S,
A,
O,
L,) containing the quantity to be drunk [at once]: a Persian word, [originally دَوْرَهْ or دُورَهْ,] arabicized: (
L,
TA:) [
J says,] I think it to be Persian, arabicized: (
S:) it is thus correctly written; not, as the context of the
K requires it to be in this sense, دَرْدَقٌ. (
TA.)
b2: Also A jar having a loop-shaped handle, (
K,
TA,) that is lifted, or carried, by the hand: of the
dial. of the people of Mekkeh:
pl. دَوَارِقُ. (
TA.) [In Egypt, it is applied to A narrownecked drinking-bottle, made of a dust-coloured, or grayish, porous earth, for the purpose of cooling the water by evaporation: several varieties of this kind of bottle are figured in ch.
v. of my “ Modern Egyptians. ”]
