A,
Mgh,
K:) or the latter verb,
inf. n. تَأْدِيبُ, signifies he taught him well, or much, the discipline of the mind, and the acquisition of good qualities and attributes of the mind or soul: and hence, this latter also signifies he disciplined him, chastised him, corrected him, or punished him, for his evil conduct; because discipline, or chastisement, is a means of inviting a person to what is properly termed الأَدَبُ.

MF:) it is of two kinds, أَدَبُ النَّفْسِ [which embraces all the significations explained above], and أَدَبُ الدَّرْسِ [which signifies the discipline to be observed in the prosecution of study, by the disciple with respect to the preceptor, and by the preceptor with respect to the disciple: see ‘Haji Khalfæ Lexicon,' Vol. I. p. 212]: (

ـأَدَبِيَّاتُ,] الأَدَبُ is a

مَأْدُبَةٌ A repast, or banquet, to which guests are invited; (A 'Obeyd,

Mgh,
Msb,
K;) or made on account of a wedding: (

accord. to A 'Obeyd, this latter has a different signification, as will be seen below, (
TA,) and ↓ مَأْدُبَةُ, (
IJ,) and ↓ أُدْبَةٌ: (
M,
K:)
pl. مَآدِبُ. (
S.) In a
trad., the
Kur-án is called مَأْدُبَةُ اللّٰهِ فِى الأَرْضِ, or ↓ مَأْدَبَة; and A 'Obeyd says that, if we read مأدُبة, the meaning is, God's repast which He has made in the earth, and to which He has invited mankind; but if we read مأدَبة, this word is of the measure مَفْعَلَةٌ from الأَدَبُ, [and the meaning is, a means which God has prepared in the earth for men's learning good discipline of the mind, &c.; it being a noun similar to مَثْرَاةٌ and مَكْثَرَةٌ &c.:] El-Ahmar, however, makes both words synonymous.

app. a bride] for whom a repast, or banquet, has been made. (
