عنبر: عنبر: صيرّه أسود. (القلائد ص222).
عَنْبَر: عَمْبر أشهب، عمبر رمادي، عمبر سنجاني بسبب لونه الأسود. (مملوك 1،2: 133).
عنبر خام: عمبر أشهب، رمادي، سنجابي (بوشر).
عنبر سائل: صمغ العنبر، (بوشر).
عَنَبَر، والجمع عنابر: مخزن الغَّلة. مولدة (محيط المحيط) وهي تحريف انبار التي ذكرها فريتاج في مادة الألف.
عَنْبَر: مخزن في قعر المركب: يقول وايلد (ص110): العنبر مخزن في قعر المركب مخزن فيه البضائع وغيرها من الحاجيات.
وعند همبرت (ص28) العنبر التحتاني بهذا المعنى. (ألف ليلة 2: 116) وقد ترجمها لين إلى الانجليزية بما معناه: قمرة، حجرة في سفينة.
عَنْبَرة: قطعة عنبر سنجابي. (كرتاس ص58) (= قطعة عنبر) القلائد ص222، المقري 1: 860).
عَنْبَرَة: عنبر سنجابي. (المقري 2: 529).
عَنْبرة، والجمع عنابر: نخبة، خبرة، زهرة، صفرة. (بوشر).
عَنْبَري: يذكر مؤلف البيان (2: 319) كسائين عنبريين ضمن الهدايا التي وزعها المنصور على صحابته. وقد قلت في معجمي يجب أن نفهم من هذا إنه رداء أو معطف من جلد سمكة بحرية كبيرة تسمى العنبر. ولم أجد حتى الآن ما يحملني على تغيير هذا. صحيح أن العنبري يطلق في العصور الحديثة اسماً لنسيج كما رأينا منذ قليل، غير إنه لا يوجد ما يدلنا على أن هذه الكلمة كانت تدل على هذا المعنى في القرن العاشر الميلادي ولما كان جلد العنبر يتخذ لصناعة التروس والنعال والأحذية والدروع (انظر لين) فمن المحتمل أيضاً إنه استخدم لصناعة المعاطف.
غير أني قد أخطات حين نقلت في هذا الموضوع عبارة المقريزي، فهذا المؤلف (2: 103 طبعة بولاق). يتحدث من غير شك عن العنبر الخام (وهو مادة تتكون في أحشاء حوت العنبر وليس عن شيء آخر، والمشكلة التي يصعب حلها هي معرفة معنى كلامه هذا، فهو يقول: وكان يتخذ منه الوسادات والناموسيات والستائر. والفعل اتخذ لا يبعث على التفكير بأشياء مشبكة بقطع من العنبر، بل بأشياء مصنوعة كلها منه، وهذا غريب.
عَنْبَر: اسم حجر لونه إلى السواد أو الخضرة رائحة العنبر الخام وتتخذ منه الأكواب. (انظر القزويني 1: 231).
عَنْبر: نوع من القماش ينسج في الإسكندرية ودمياط (صفة مصر 12: 270) وقماش رقيق جعد من الحرير (كريب). (صفة مصر 17: 390).
ويقول كاترمير (مملوك 1: 2: 133): (حسب ما يقول السيد إستيف) (مالية مصر ص59). إنه قماش يسمى بمصر عنبر وذلك بلا شك لأن لونه اسود. وبلا شك هذه موضع شك عندي. إذ يجب أن نجد الدليل على أن هذا القماش أسود دوماً، ولا دليل على ذلك.
العَرَق العنبري: هو أجود العَرَق (محيط المحيط).
عنبري: عرق (مشروب روحي)، شراب كحولي فيه رب الفواكه، قافيه (شراب سكر)، عرق عنبري. (بوشر، همبرت ص17، لين عادات 1: 223). وفي محيط المحيط أيضاً: العَمْبَري نوع من العرق حلو وهو من أجوده.
عنبري مثلَّج: عرق مثلج. (بوشر).
عَنْبِرية: قنينة عرق. (بوشر).
عنبرينا: في تاريخ أبي الفداء (5: 80): وسيف محلّى بالذهب وتلكش وعنبرينا. ولا شك في كتابة الكلمة، فهي ليست مذكورة في مخطوطتنا كما تأكدت من ذلك بل هي مذكورة أيضاً في مخطوطتي باريس (رقم 750 و749 تكملة المخطوطات العربية) التي تفضل السيد دفريمري فراجعها حين طلبت منه ذلك، والمخطوطة الأولى منهما قد تسخت لاستعمال المؤلف. وأرى أنها الكلمة عَنْبَرينَه، وهي إما نوع من الحلي مملوءة بالعنبر الخام يتقلدها النساء في أعناقهن، وإما ضفيرة زهور ينظم بين زهورها العنبر كما يقول فلَّرس. وكلمة عنبرينة كلمة فارسية.
عَنْبَرْ كيس: نسيج من القطن أبيض رقيق. (محيط المحيط) وكَليكَوت وهو قماش قطني خشن يصنع أصلاً في مدينة كليكوت على شاطىء مالابار (رولاند) وهو يكتبها عنبر فير وكذلك يكتبها بوسييه. ودَبُلان، وهو نوع من النسيج الهندي. (غدامس ص42) مجلة الشرق والجزائر: 21، 13= 153).
مُعَنْبَر: يعني فيما يقول فريتاج، ولم يذكر نصا يؤيده، وكذلك فيما يقول صاحب محيط المحيط. الذي تابعه ما تفوح منه رائحة العنبر. وبهذا المعنى ترجمها دي ساسي طرائف: (1: 78). وتعني هذه الكلمة عادة أسود (مملوك 1، 2: 133).

(TA.) A poet says, وَالرِّحْمَ فابْلُلْهَا بِخَيْرِ البُلَّانْ فَإِنَهَااشْتُقَّتْ مِنِ اسْمِ الرَّحْمٰنْ [(tropical:) And the ties of relationship, make thou them close &c. by the best mode, or modes, of doing so; for the name thereof is derived from the name of the Compassionate]: here ↓البُلَّان may be a noun in the sing. number, like غُفْرَانٌ, or it may be pl. of بَلَلٌ, which may be either a subst. or an. inf. n., for some inf. ns. have pls., as شُغْلٌ and عَقْلٌ and مَرَضٌ. (M.) And it is said in a trad., بُلُّوا أَرْحَامَكُمْ وَلَوْ بِالسَّلَامِ (tropical:) Make ye close [or refresh ye] your ties of relationship &c., though but, or if only, by salutation; syn. صِلُوهَا, (M,) or نَدُّوهَا بِالصِّلَةِ. (S.) And hence the saying in another trad., إِذَ اسْتَشَنَّ مَا بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ اللّٰهِ فَابْلُلْهُ بِالإِحْسَانِ إِلَى عِبَادَهِ (tropical:) [When the tie between thee and God wears out, repair thou it, or refresh thou it, by beneficence to his servants]. (TA.) [See also بِلَالٌ.] b4: بَلَّكَ اللّٰهُ بِابْنٍ, (S, M, K,) and ابْنًا, (M, K,) (assumed tropical:) May God give thee a son. (S, M, K, TA.) Hence, perhaps, the phrase, بُلَّتْ يَدَاكَ بِهِ as meaning (assumed tropical:) Thou was given it. (Har p. 479.) You say also, بَلَلْتُهُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) I gave to him. (T.) And ↓ لَا تَبْلُكَ عِنْدِى بَالَّةٌ, and ↓ بَلَالٌ, (T, S, M, K, [but in the K عِنْدَنَا, and “ or ” for “ and,” and in the CK لا تَبَلُّكَ,]) (tropical:) No bounty, (S,) no good, or no benefit, shall betide thee from me, (T, S, K, TA,) nor will I profit thee, nor believe thee. (T.) b5: بَلُّوا They sowed land. (ISh, T, K.) A2: [بَلَّ as an intrans. verb perhaps primarily signifies It was, or became, moist; and has for its sec. Pers\. بَلِلْتَ or بَلَلْتَ, and for its aor. ـَ or بَلِّ, and for its inf. n. بَلَلٌ, and probably بِلَّةٌ &c. mentioned with that noun below. b2: And hence,] بَلَّتِ الرِّيحُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. بُلُولٌ, The wind was cold and moist. (M, K.) [See بَلِيلٌ.] b3: [And hence, probably, as though originally said of one who had had a fever,] بَلَّ مِنْ مَرَضِهِ, aor. ـِ inf. n. بَلٌّ (S, M, K) and بَلَلٌ and بُلُولٌ; (M, K) and ↓ ابلّ, and ↓ استبلّ; (S, M, K;) He recovered from his disease: (S, M:) and ↓ ابتلّ and ↓ تبلّل he became in a good condition after leanness, or meagerness: (M,Z:) or all have this latter signification: and the second (ابلّ) has the former also. (K.) b4: And بَلَّ, (M, K,) aor. ـِ (M,) inf. n. بُلُولٌ; and ↓ ابلّ; He (a man, TA) escaped, or became safe or secure, (M, K,) from difficulty, distress, or straitness.

(Fr, T, K, TA.

(S.) One says, لَئِنْ بَلَّتْ بِكَ يَدِى لَا تُفَارِقُنِى أَوْ تُؤَدِّىَ حَقِّى [Assuredly if my hand get hold of thee, thou shalt not quit me unless thou give up, or pay, my right, or due]. (S.) and hence the prov., مَا بَلَلْتُ مِنْ فُلَانٍ بِأَفْوَقَ نَاصِلٍ [I did not get, in such a one, a man like an arrow with a broken notch and without a head]; meaning I got a perfect man; one sufficient.

[See مُبِلٌّ.]) A3: أَبْلَلْتُهُ I made him to go away. (Msb.) 5 تَبَلَّّ see 8: b2: and see also بَلَّ.8 ابتلّ It became moist or moistened (S, M, Msb, * K) with water (M, Msb, K) &c.; (M;) and in like manner, [but signifying it became much moistened, being quasi-pass. of بلّلهُ,] ↓ تبلّل. (M, K.) b2: See also بَلَّ.10 إِسْتَبْلَ3َ see بَلَّ.

R. Q. 1 بَلْبَلَ, inf. n. بَلْبَلَةٌ and بِلْبَالٌ, (M, K,) the latter with kesr, (TA,) [but written in the CK with fet-h,] He put people in motion; and roused, or excited, them. (M, K.) b2: Also, (T,) inf. n. بَلْبَلَةٌ, (K,) He scattered, dispersed, or put asunder, his goods, commodities, or householdutensils and furniture. (IAar, T, K. * [In the CK, والمَتاعُ is erroneously put for وَالمَتَاعِ.]) b3: And He divided, or disunited, opinions. (Fr, T, K; but only the inf. n. of the verb in this sense is mentioned.) b4: And He (God) [mixed or confounded or] made discordant the tongues, or languages, of a people. (T.) b5: [See also بَلْبَلَةٌ below.] R. Q. 2 تَبَلْبَلَ He (a man) was moved by grief [or anxiety: see بَلْبَلَةٌ, below]. (Har p. 94.) b2: تَبَلْبَلَتِ الأَلْسُنُ The tongues, or languages, became mixed, or confounded. (S, K.) A2: تَبَلْبَلَتِ الإِبِلُ الكَلَأَ The camels went on seeking the herbage, or pasture, and left not of it aught. (S, K.) بَلْ is a particle of digression: (Mughnee, K:) or, accord. to Mbr, it denotes emendation, wherever it occurs, in the case of a negation or an affirmation: (T, TA:) or it is a word of emendation, and denoting digression from that which precedes; as also بَنْ, in which the ن is a substitute for the ل, because بل is of frequent occurrence, and بن is rare; or, as IJ says, the latter may be an independent dial. var. (M.) When it is followed by a proposition, the meaning of the digression is either the cancelling of what precedes, as in وَقَالُوا اتَّخَذَ الرَّحْمٰنُ وَلَدًا سُبْحَانَهُ بَلْ عِبَادٌ مُكْرَمُونَ [And they said, “The Compassionate hath gotten offspring: ” extolled be his freedom from that which is derogatory from his glory! nay, or nay rather, or nay but, they are honoured servants (Kur xxi. 26)], or transition from one object of discourse to another, as in قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَنْ تَزَكَّى وَ ذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهِ فَصَلَّى

بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا [He hath attained felicity who hath purified himself, and celebrated the name of his Lord, and prayed: but ye prefer the present life (Kur lxxxvii. 14-16)]: (Mughnee, K: *) and in all such cases it is an inceptive particle; not a conjunctive. (Mughnee.) When it is followed by a single word, it is a conjunction, (S, * Msb, * Mughnee, K,) and requires that word to be in the same case as the word before it: (S:) and if preceded by a command or an affirmation, (Mughnee, K,) as in اِضْرَبْ زَيْدًا بَلْ عَمْرًا [Beat thou Zeyd: no, 'Amr], (Msb, Mughnee, K,) and قَامَ زَيْدٌ بَلْ عَمْرٌو [Zeyd stood: no, 'Amr], (M, Mughnee, K,) or جَآءَنِى أَخُوكَ بَلْ أَبُوكَ [Thy brother came to me: no, thy father], (S,) it makes what precedes it to be as though nothing were said respecting it, (S, * Msb, * Mughnee, K,) making the command or affirmation to relate to what follows it: (S, * Msb, * Mughnee:) [and similar to these cases is the case in which it is preceded by an interrogation: see أَمْ as syn. with this particle:] but when it is preceded by a negation or a prohibition, it is used to confirm the meaning of what precedes it and to assign the contrary of that meaning to what follows it, (Mughnee, K,) as in مَا قَامَ زَيْدٌ عَمْرٌو [Zeyd stood not, but 'Amr stood], (Mughnee,) or مَا رَأَيْتُ زَيْدًا بَلْ عَمْرًا, [I saw not Zeyd, but I saw 'Amr], (S,) and لَا يَقُمْ زَيْدٌ بَلْ عَمْرٌو [Let not Zeyd stand, but let 'Amr stand]. (Mughnee.) Mbr and 'Abd-El-Wárith allow its being used to transfer the meaning of the negation and the prohibition to what follows it; so that, accord. to them, one may say, مَازَيْدٌ قَائِمًا بَلْ قَاعِدًا [as meaning Zeyd is not standing: no, is not sitting], and بَلْ قَاعِدٌ [but is sitting]; the meaning being different [in the two cases]. (Mughnee, K. *) The Koofees disallow its being used as a conjunction after anything but a negation [so in the Mughnee, but in the K a prohibition,] or the like thereof; so that one should not say, ضَرَبْتُ زَيْدًا بَلْ إِيَّاكَ [I beat Zeyd: no, thee]. (Mughnee, K.) Sometimes لَا is added before it, to corroborate the meaning of digression, after an affirmation, as in the saying, وَجْهُكَ البَدْرُ لَا بَلِ الشَّمْسُ لَوْ لَمْ يُقْضَ لِلشَّمْسِ كَسْفَةٌ وَ أُفُولُ [Thy face is the full moon: no, but it would be the sun, were it not that eclipse and setting are appointed to happen to the sun]: and to corroborate what precedes it, after a negation, as in وَ مَا هَجَرْتُكَ لَا بَلْ زَادَنِى شَغَفًا هَجْرٌ وَ بَعْدٌ تَرَاخَى لَا إِلَى أَجَلِ [And I did not abandon thee, or have not abandoned thee: no, but abandonment and distance, protracted, not to an appointed period, increased, or have increased, my heart-felt love]. (Mughnee, K. *) b2: Sometimes it is used to denote the passing from one subject to another without cancelling [what precedes it], and is syn. with وَ, as in the saying in the Kur [lxxxv. 20 and 21], وَاللّٰهُ مِنْ, وَ رَائِهِمْ مُحِيطٌ بَلْ هُوَ قُرْآنٌ مَجِيدٌ [And God from behind them is encompassing: and it is a glorious Kur-án: or here it may mean إِنَّ, as in an ex. below]: and to this meaning it is made to accord in the saying, لَهُ عَلَىَّ دِينَارٌ بَلْ دِرْهَمٌ [I owe him a deenár and a dirhem]. (Msb.) b3: In the fol-lowing saying in the Kur [xxxviii. 1],وَالْقُرْآنِ ذِى

الذِّكْرِبَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فِى عِزَّةٍ وَشِقَاقٍ, it is said to signify إِنَّ; [so that the meaning is, By the Kur-án possessed of eminence, verily they who have disbelieved are in a state of pride and opposition;] therefore the oath applies to it. (Akh, S.) b4: Sometimes the Arabs use it in breaking off a saying and commencing another; and thus a man commences with it a citation, or recitation, of verse; in which case, it does not form any part of the first verse, but is a sign of the breaking off, or ending, of what precedes. (Akh, S.) b5: Sometimes it is put in the place of رُبَّ, (S, Mughnee,) as in the saying of the rájiz, بَلْ مَهْمَهٍ قَطَعْتُ بَعْدَ مَهْمَهٍ

[Many a far-extending desert have I traversed, after a far-extending desert]. (S: [and a similar ex. is given in the Mughnee.]) b6: What is deficient in this word [supposing it to be originally of three letters] is unknown; and so in the cases of هَلْ and قَدْ: it may be a final و or ى or they may be originally بَلّ and هَلّ and قَدّ. (Akh, S.) بَلٌّ Moist, or containing moisture: or rather moistened; being, app., an inf. n. used in the sense of a pass. part. n. ; like خَلْقٌ in the sense of مَخْلُوقٌ. Hence,] رِيحٌ بَلَّةٌ and ↓بَلِيلٌ and ↓بَلِيلَةٌ A wind in which is moisture: (S:) or the last, a wind mixed with feeble rain: (T:) and the second, a wind cold with moisture; (M, K;) or the same, a wind cold with rain; (A, TA;) the north wind, as though it sprinkled water by reason of its coldness: (TA:) and ↓ بَلَلٌ also signifies a cold north wind: (Ibn-'Abbád, TA:) بَلِيلٌ is used alike as sing. and pl. : (K:) it has no pl. (M.) A2: بَلٌّ بِشَىْءٍ A man (M) devoted, or attached, to a thing, and keeping to it constantly. (M, K. [In the CK and in my MS. copy of the K, اللَّهْجُ is erroneously put for اللَّهِجُ.]) b2: And بَلٌّ, alone, Much given to the deferring of payment to his creditors, by repeated promises; (T;) withholding, by swearing, what he possesses of things that are the rightful property of others. (IAar, T, K.) See also أَبَلٌّ, in two places.

بِلٌّ Allowable, or lawful; i. e., to be taken, or let alone, or done, or made use of, or possessed: (T, S, M, K:) so in the dial. of Himyer: (T, S. M:) or a remedy; (A'Obeyd, T, S, M, K;) from the phrase بَلَّ مِنْ مَرَضِهِ [q. v.]: (A' Obeyd, T, S, M:) or it is an imitative sequent to حِلٌّ, (M, K,) as some say: (M:) so As thought until he heard that it was said to be of the dial. of Himyer in the first of the senses explained above: (S, M:) A'Obeyd and ISk say that it may not be so because it is conjoined with حِلٌّ by وَ: (T:) and A'Obeyd says, We have seldom found an imitative sequent conjoined by و. (TA.) Hence the phrase, هُوَ لَكَ حِلٌّ وَبِلٌّ It is to thee lawful and allowable: or lawful and a remedy. (M, K. *) And hence the saying of El-'Abbás the son of 'Abd-El-Muttalib, respecting [the well of] Zemzem, هِىَ لِشَارِبٍ حِلٌّ وَ بِلٌّ It is to a drinker lawful &c. (T, S, M.) بَلَّةٌ [A single act of moistening. b2: And hence,] The least sprinkling (أَدْنَى بَلَلٍ lit. the least moisture) of good. (TA in art. هل.) You say, جَآءَنَا فُلَانٌ فَلَمْ يَأْتِنَا بِهَلَّةٍ وَلَا بَلَّةٍ [Such a one came to us and did not bring us anything to rejoice us nor the least sprinkling of good]: هلّة, accord. to ISK, being from الفَرَحُ and الاِسْتِهْلَالُ, and بلّة from البَلْلُ and الخَيْرُ. (S.) And مَا أَصَابَ هَلَّةً

وَلَا بَلَّةً He did not obtain, or has not obtained, anything. (S.) b3: Wealth, or competence: (Fr, TA:) or wealth, or competence, after poverty; (Fr, T, K, TA;) as also ↓ بُلَّى. (K.) b4: Remains of herbage or pasture; (K;) as also ↓ بُلَّةٌ. (Fr, T, K.) b5: The freshness of youth; as also ↓ بُلَّةٌ; (M, K; *) but the former word is the more approved. (M.) b6: See also an ex. voce بَلَلٌ.

بُلَّةٌ: see بَلَلٌ, in two places: b2: and see also بَلَّةٌ, in two places. b3: Also A state of moisture. (M.) b4: The moisture of fresh pasture. (S, M, K.) The rájiz (Iháb Ibn-'Omeyr, TA) says, describing [wild] asses, وَ فَارَقَتْهَا بُلَّةُ الأَوَابِلِ حَتَّى إِذَا أَهْرَأْنَ بِالأَصَائِلِ meaning that they went in the cool of the evening to the water after that the herbage had dried up: الاوابل means the wild animals that are satisfied with green pasture, so as to be in no need of water. (S.) بِلَّةٌ: see بَلَلٌ, in two places. b2: Also Good, good fortune, prosperity, or wealth: and sustenance, or means of subsistence. (M, K.) b3: Health; soundness; or freedom from disease.

(K.) You say, مَا أَحْسَنٌ بِلَّةَ لِسَانِهِ (tropical:) [How good is the fluency, &c., of his tongue!]. (T, M, TA.) بَلَلٌ Moisture; (S, M, Msb, K;) as also ↓ بِلَّةٌ (S, M, K) and ↓ بِلَالٌ and ↓ بُلَالَةٌ (M, K) [and several other dial. vars. occurring in phrases in this paragraph]: or ↓ بِلَّةٌ signifies an inferior, or inconsiderable, degree of moisture; (Lth, T, K; [an ambiguity in the K in this place has occasioned several mistakes in Freytag's Lex. voce بَلَلٌ;]) and ↓ بِلَالٌ is an anomalous pl. of this word; (M, TA;) and is pl. also of ↓ بُلَّةٌ: (S, TA:) and بُلَّانٌ, occurring in a verse cited above (see 1) may be pl. of بَلَلٌ. (M.) [Using syns. of بَلَلٌ in the sense explained above,] you say, طَوَيْتُ

And you say, حَكَيْتُ فُلَانًا; and ↓ حَاكَيْتُهُ, (K,) inf. n. مُحَاكَاةٌ; (TA;) [I imitated such a one;] I did the deed of such a one: (K:) or I said the like of the saying of such a one, exactly; (K, * TA;) not exceeding it: (TA:) and حَكَيْتُ فِعْلَهُ, and ↓ حَاكَيْتُهُ, I did the like of his deed: (S:) but in relation to what is had, foul, or unseemly, the latter verb is most used. (TA.) b3: And حَكَيْتُهُ and ↓ حَاكَيْتُهُ I resembled him, (K,) and it. (TA.) You say, فُلَانٌ يَحْكِى الشَّمْسَ حُسْنًا; and ↓ يُحَاكِيهَا, inf. n. as above; Such a one resembles the sun in beauty. (S.) A2: حَكَى and ↓ احكى He tightened a knot; (S, K;) and made it strong: (IKtt, TA:) dial. vars. of حَكَأَ and أَحْكَأَ. (S.) 3 حَاْكَىَ see 1, in four places.4 أَحْكَىَ see 1, last sentence.

A2: احكى عَلَيْهِمْ i. q. أَبَرَّ [He overcame them; &c.]. (Sgh, K.) 8 احتكى أَمْرِى My affair was, or became, in a firm, solid, sound, or good, state. (K.) b2: احتكى ذٰلِكَ فِى صَدْرِى That came into my mind. (Fr, TA.) [See also اِحْتَكَأَ; and see اِحْتَكَّ in the first paragraph of art. حك.]

اِمْرَأَةٌ حَكِىٌّ A calumnious woman; (K;) one who repeats the sayings of others in a calumnious manner. (TA.) حِكَايَةٌ inf. n. of 1. (S, Msb, K.) b2: [Used as a simple subst., it signifies A narrative, story, or tale:] pl. حَكَايَاتٌ. (TA.) b3: As a conventional term in grammar, [meaning Imitation, or conforming, in language,] it is of two kinds: حِكَايَةُ جُمْلَةٍ [The imitation of a proposition, or phrase], and حِكَايَةُ مُفْرَدٍ [The imitation of a single word]: the former is of two sorts; one of which is termed حِكَايَةُ مَلْفُوظٍ [The imitation of a thing uttered], whereof قَالُوا الحَمْدُ للّٰهِ [They said, “Praise be to God,” (Kur vii. 41,)] is an ex.; and the other, حِكَايَةُ مَكْتُوبٍ [The imitation of a thing written], whereof قَرَأْتُ عَلَى فَصِّهِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللّٰهِ [I read upon his ring-stone, “Mohammad is the Apostle of God,”] is an ex.: and the latter kind, also, (that of a single word,) is of two sorts; one of which is with the interrogative أَىٌّ or مَنْ, as when, to one who says, رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا [pronounced رَجُلَا, I saw a man], you say, أَيَّا [What (man)?], or مَنَا [Whom?], and the like, which sort is agreeable with a common rule; the other sort being without an interrogative, as the saying of one of the Arabs, to one who said, هَاتَانِ تَمْرَتَانِ [These are two dates], دَعْنَا مِنْ تَمْرَتَانِ [Abstain thou from troubling us about two dates], which sort is anomalous. (El-Ashmoonee's Expos. of the Alfeeyeh of Ibn-Málik.) [حِكَايَةُ صَوْتٍ signifies A word imitative of a sound; an onomatopœia: see اِسْمُ صَوْتٍ

in art. سمو.]
