accord. to the “ Nawá-dir el-Aaráb,” ترخم صَبِيَّهَا and ترخم عَلَيْهِ, [

K;) i. e. the [abbreviating by the] eliding of the end thereof, for the alleviation of the utterance; (
Msb;) the curtailing a name of its last letter, or more; (
S,
TA;) as when, to one whose name is حَارِثٌ or مَالِكٌ, you say يَا حَارِ or يَامَالِ: but
accord. to
Z, in the
A, it is from the ترخيم of the hen; because this is only on the occasion of the cutting short (قَطْع) [of the laying] of the eggs: (
TA:) [in like manner also] the تَرْخِيم of the diminutive is the [abbreviating thereof by the] cutting off of [one or more of] the augmentative letters [and sometimes of radical letters]; as when, in forming the diminutive of أَسْوَدُ [and that of إِبْرَاهِيمُ], one says سُوَيْدٌ [and بُرَيْهُ]. (

As of the
pass. part. n. ↓ مَرْخُومٌ. (
S,
TA.) [But
accord. to
Z, these significations are from رَخَمَةٌ as signifying a bird of a certain species described in what follows: for] it is said in the
A that أَلْقَى عَلَيْهِ
↓ رَخَمَةً means (assumed
tropical:) He was, or became, affectionate, or pitiful, or compassionate, to him, and attached to him: because the رَخَمَة is vehemently voracious, and fond of alighting upon carcasses: therefore love and affection lighting upon one are likened thereto. (
TA.)

JK,
TA) and also ↓رُخَمٌ [which is
anomalous]: (
JK:) the ↓ رَخَمَة is a partycoloured bird, white and black, (
S,
TA,) resembling the نَسْر (
JK,
S,
TA) in form; and also called أَنُوقٌ: (
S,
TA:) [it is said to be] a bird that eats human dung, a foul bird, not of such as are pursued as game, wherefore no expiation is incumbent on him who kills it when he is in the state of إِحْرَام, for it is not eaten: it is [said to be] thus called because it is too weak to take prey: (
Msb:) [various fanciful uses of its gall-bladder and flesh &c. for medicinal and other purposes are described in the
K:
accord. to some, if not all, it is a term for the female: (see أَنُوقٌ:)] the male is called ↓يَرْخُمٌ and ↓يَرْخُومٌ (

TA.) [If correctly written in the
JK, it is probably a
