خف

ى1 خَفِىَ, (Mgh, Msb, K,) aor. ـْ (Msb, K,) inf. n. خَفَآءٌ, (Mgh, Msb, K,) has two contr. significations: (Mgh, Msb:) It was, or became, unperceived or imperceptible, [or hardly perceived or perceptible, by any of the senses, or only by the eye or ear, or by the mind; mostly] unapparent, or not apparent; (K;) [latent; obscure;] hidden, concealed, or covered; (Mgh, Msb;) [or unconspicuous; but also faint, or dim, to the sight; suppressed, or stifled, said of the voice; or low, faint, gentle, or soft, to the ear; and obscure to the mind, abstruse, recondite, occult, or covert; and secret, private, or clandestine:] and the contr., i. e. it appeared; it was, or became, apparent, open, manifest, plain, or evident; (Mgh, Msb;) [as also ↓ استخفى: (see مُسْتَخْفٍ, below:)] or, accord. to some, the particle that connects it with its subject distinguishes one meaning from the other: (Msb:) you say, خَفِى

عَلَيْهِ, aor. and inf. n. as above, (S, Mgh, Msb, TA,) it (a thing, or an affair, Mgh) was, or became, unperceived or imperceptible, [&c., by him;] unapparent, or not apparent, [or obscure, &c., to him;] (TA;) or hidden, or concealed, from him: (Mgh, Msb:) and خَفِىَ لَهُ it appeared to him; it was, or became, perceptible, apparent, open, &c., to him: [but see what follows:] (Mgh, Msb:) whence the sayings of Mohammad, [app. the Hanafee Imám,] referring to spoils, فَخَفِى

لَهُمْ أَنْ يَذْهَبُوا بِهَا وَيَكْتُمُوهَا أَهْلَ الشِّرْكِ, i. e. It appeared [to them that they should go away with them, or take them away, and conceal them from the believers in a plurality of gods], and خَفِىَ لَهُمْ أَنْ يُخْرِجُوهَا إِلَى دَارِ الإِسْلَامِ [It appeared to them that they should take them forth to the territory of El-Islám]: but this is said only in relation to that which appears from a state of concealment or from a hidden quarter. (Mgh.) [Hence,] بَرِحَ الخَفَآءُ The affair, or case, became manifest: (S, K:) or the state of concealment departed, or ceased; but the former explanation is better: or, as some say, ↓ الخَفَآءُ here signifies the secret; and the meaning is, the secret became apparent: (TA:) or, lit., the low ground became high and apparent; meaning (assumed tropical:) what was concealed became revealed. (Har pp. 133-4. [See also art. برح.]) [And عَلَى خَفَآءٍ means Covertly, secretly, privately, stealthily, or clandestinely. (See also what follows.)] b2: خَفِيتُ لَهُ, aor. ـَ (K,) inf. n. خُفْيَةٌ and خِفْيَةٌ (Msb, K) and خِفْوَةٌ, (K,) the ى and و being interchangeable, (TA,) signifies ↓ اِخْتَفَيْتُ [i. e. I made myself unapparent to him, lurked, or lay hid or in ambush, for him; cloaked, or disguised, myself to him; hid, or concealed, myself from him]: (K:) [for] اختفى signifies he hid, or concealed, himself, (Fr, * El-Fárábee, JK, * Msb, K,) مِنْهُ from him; (TA;) as also ↓ استخفى, (Fr, * JK, * Msb, K,) and ↓ اخفى, (IAar, K,) and ↓ تخفّى also is syn. with اختفى [in this sense]: (Z, TA:) or you say, ↓ اِسْتَخْفَيْتُ مِنْكَ, meaning I hid, or concealed, myself from thee; but not ↓ اِخْتَفَيْتُ: (IKt, Th, S, Msb:) or ↓ اختفى in the sense of خَفِىَ is not of high authority, nor is it disallowed, (Az, Msb, TA,) but ↓ استخفى is more usual. (Az, TA.) Yousay, فَعَلْتُهُ خُفْيَةً and خِفْيَةً [I did it covertly, secretly, privately, stealthily, or clandestinely]. (Msb) And قُتِلَ خفْيَةً and خِفْوَةً [He was slain covertly, secretly, &c.]. (JK.) And يَأْكُلُهُ خِفْوَةً

[lit. He eats it covertly, &c.,] means he steals it. (K.) In the saying in the Kur [vii. 53], اُدْعُو رَبَّكُمْ تَضَرُّعًا وَخُفْيَةً, the meaning [of the last word] is, Submissively, devoting yourselves to his service: or, accord. to Zj, adhering to his service in your minds: or, accord. to Th, celebrating Him in your minds: or, accord. to Lh, in quietness, and stillness: (TA:) or secretly; and so in the similar passage in the Kur vi. 63. (Jel, and so Bd on this latter passage.) خُفْيَةٌ is from أَخْفَيْتُ الصَّوْتَ [explained below in this paragraph]: (JK:) the intrans. v. whereof is ↓ اختفى [signifying It (the voice) was, or became, suppressed, or stifled; or low, faint, gentle, or soft; like خَفِىَ, which is more common]. (Lth, TA.) A2: خَفَاهُ, aor. ـْ (JK, S, Msb, K,) inf. n. خَفْىٌ (JK, Msb, * K) and خُفِىٌّ, (K,) also has two contr. significations: (S, Msb, TA:) He made it perceptible, apparent, open, manifest, plain, or evident: (JK, S, Msb, K:) and he hid, or concealed, or covered, it; (S, Msb, K; [in this latter sense, erroneously written in the CK خَفّاهُ;]) as also ↓ اخفاهُ: (S, K:) or, accord. to some, this latter has the latter meaning; and the former verb has [only] the former meaning: but accord. to other, the reverse is the case: (Msb:) or, accord. to Aboo-' Alee El-Kálee, the former verb has the former meaning only; and ↓ the latter verb has both meanings: (IB, TA:) ↓ the latter is also explained as signifying he removed its خِفَآء, i. e. its covering: (TA:) and the former, as meaning he made it to come forth from a state of concealment: (JK:) and he drew it forth; (K;) as also ↓ اختفاهُ. (S, Msb, K.) One says, خَفَى المَطَرُ الفَأْرَ The rain made the rats, or mice, to come forth from their holes. (S.) It is said in the Kur [xx. 15], إِنَّ السَّاعَةَ آتِيَةٌ أَكَادُ

أَخْفِيهَا, (JK, TA,) or ↓ أُخْفِيهَا, (JK, S, TA,) accord. to different readers: (TA:) the former means [Verily the hour of the resurrection is coming:] I am almost making it to appear: (JK, TA:) and the latter, I am almost removing that which conceals it: (S, IJ, TA:) or I almost conceal it: (JK, TA:) or, as Ubeí reads it, أَكَادُ أُخْفِيهَا مِنْ نَفْسى [I almost conceal it from Myself]: and Fr says [that the meaning is], I almost conceal it from Myself, and how then should I acquaint you therewith? (TA.) and it is said in a trad. respecting the flight [from Mekkeh], اخفى عَنَّا خَبَرَكَ [written without the vowel-signs, so that it may be اِخْفِى or ↓ أَخْفِى,] i. e. Conceal thou thine information from such as may ask thee respecting us. (TA.) And in another trad., كَانَ يَخْفِى صَوْتَهُ بِأَنِينٍ, thus with fet-h to the ى, meaning He used to make his voice perceptible [or audible, with moaning]. (TA.) And you say, الصَّوْتَ ↓ أَخْفَيْتُ [meaning I suppressed, or stifled, the voice; or made it low, faint, gentle, or soft]. (Lth, JK, TA.) [and الكَلَامَ ↓ اخفى He uttered speech, or the speech, in a low, faint, gentle, or soft, tone; he spoke in a low, faint, gentle, or soft, manner; lit. he made speech, or the speech, to be low, &c.]

(JK.) A2: As a trans. v.: see 1. b2: Yousay also اختفى مَيِّتًا He drew forth a dead body from the grave, to steal the grave-clothes. (TA.) b3: And اختفى البِئْرَ He dug, or cleared out, the well. (Msb.) b4: And اختفى دَمَهُ He slew him without its being known. (K.) 10 إِسْتَخْفَىَ see 1, in four places, in the former half of the paragraph.

(Lth, JK, S, K.) b2: [Hence,] أَخْفِيَةُ النَّوْرِ The calyxes of flowers: (K:) sing. as above. (TA.) b3: and أَخْفِيَةُ الكَرَا [The coverings of drowsiness; meaning] the eyes. (K.) خَفِىٌّ i. q. ↓ خَافٍ; (S, K;) applied to a thing; (S;) i. e. Unperceived or imperceptible, [or hardly perceived or perceptible, by any of the senses, or only by the eye or ear, or by the mind; mostly] unapparent, or not apparent; (K;) [latent; obscure; hidden, or concealed; or unconspicuous; but also faint, or dim, to the sight; suppressed, or stifled, applied to the voice; or low, faint, gentle, or soft, to the ear; and obscure to the mind, abstruse, recondite, occult, or covert; and secret, private, or clandestine: see 1, first sentence:] pl. خَفَايَا.

(K.) and some of the Arabs say, (Yaakoob, S,) إِذَا حَسُنَ مِنَ المَرْأَةِ خَفِيَّاهَا حَسُنَ سَائِرُهَا, meaning [When] the voice and the foot-mark of the woman [are good, or pleasing, the rest, or the whole, of what pertains to her is good, or pleasing]: (Yaakoob, JK, S, K:) for when her voice is soft, or gentle, this indicates her being bashful, or shy; and when her foot-marks are near together, and firmly impressed, they indicate that she has [large] buttocks and haunches. (Yaakoob, S.) One says also, لَقِيتُهُ خَفِيًّا I met him covertly, secretly, privately, or clandestinely. (TA.) [And مَشَى مِشْيَةً

(TA.) b2: اليَدُ المُسْتَخْفِيَةُ The hand of the thief, and of the rifler of graves: opposed to اليَدُ المُسْتَعْلِيَةُ, which is the hand of him who takes by force, and of the plunderer, and the like: the Sunneh ordains that the former shall be cut off [except in certain cases], but not the latter. (TA.)

استفلك: استدار فصار كالفلكة. (ديوان امرئ القيس ص24 البيت العاشر، معجم البكري ص314).
استفلك على فلان: ظلمه وجار عليه. (فوك).
فلك: عجلة، دولاب (المعجم اللاتيني العربي) ودولاب العربة (المعجم اللاتيني العربي) وفيه: ( quadriga: رخ ذو أربعة أفلاك). ودولاب وهي آلة تديرها الدابة ليستقي بها (ابن العوام 1: 146).
فلك الساقين والركبتين: داخصة، رضفة، العظم المدور المتحرك في رأس الركبة. (المعجم اللاتيني- العربي).
علم الفلك: علم يبحث فيه عن أحوال الأجرام العلوية. (بوشر، محيط المحيط دوماس قبيل ص63).

فلوكة والجمع فلائك: قارب المركب، زورق، سفينة صغيرة، مربعة الأشرعة وهي سفينة تجارية أشرعتها من قطعة واحدة مربعة، ضرب من سفن المتوسط. (بوشر).
وحين بنيت هذه الكلمة في معجم الأسبانية (ص264 - 266) رفضت أن تكون لهذه الكلمة أية علاقة بالكلمة القديمة فلك التي يربطونها بها عادة. ولئن كان السيد دفيك (ص118) يقول: (إن علماء الاشتقاق غير مقتنعين بهذا وأنهم مصرون على رأيهم الأول) فيجب على أن أقول إني مصر على رأيي. وكان من العبث أن أشير، كما فعل هذا العالم (ص117)، أن مترجمي التوراة لم يخشوا أن يختاروا كلمة فلك للدلالة على سفينة نوح، لأن كل المستعربين يعلمون أيضا أن هذه الكلمة وردت في القرآن اسما لسفينة نوح. وأصر على القول أيضا أن هذه الكلمة لا علاقة لها بلغة الكلام في القرون الوسطى، إذ لم يستعملها الكتاب لا في هذا المعنى العام للسفينة ولا اسما لنوع خاص من السفن.
والسيد دي غويه يشاركني في هذا الرأي، وكل العالم يعلم أن هذا العالم يعرف الجغرافيين والرحالة العرب أحسن من أي شخص آخر، فهو قد درس دراسة خاصة المؤلفين الذين يعرفون جيدا أسماء السفن، وقد قال لي إنه لم يصادف هذه الكلمة إلا مرتين، على الرغم من شدة تتبعه. الأول في المسعودي (1: 292) الذي عليك أن تقرأ فيه فاحدث بدل فأخذت. ولا شك في أن في هذه الكلمة من تذكرة للقرآن (الكريم) حيث تكررت فيه هذه الكلمة، والمسعودي بعد ذلك بالكلمة المألوفة مراكب. والثانية في عبارة الزمخشري النحوي الذي يقول في أساس البلاغة (مادة قرب): وركبت في القارب إلى الفلك. وفسرها بعد ذلك بأنها الزورق.
بقيت ملاحظتان: الأولى إن فلوكة قد اشتقت من الجمع فلوك وأضيفت إليها الهاء على طريقة العامة في الاشتقاق، غير أن وجود مثل هذه الجمع مشكوك فيه (انظر لين)، فإن كلمة فلك تدل على المفرد وعلى الجمع.
ثانيا: لم ترد في المعجم اللاتيني العرب ومعجم فوك ومعجم الكالا كلمة فلك بمعنى سفينة.

A4: and فلّكت She (a bitch) desired copulation, and discharged blood from the womb; syn. اجعلت وحاضت. (O, K.) 4 أَفْلَكَ see 2, first sentence: b2: and فَلْكَةٌ, second sentence: A2: and see also 2, last sentence but one.5 تَفَلَّكَ see 2, first sentence.

فُلْكٌ A ship: (S, O, Msb, K, &c.:) [also particularly applied to the ark of Noah; as in the Kur-án vii. 62, &c.:] the word is generally thus only; but some say ↓ فُلُكٌ also, with two dammehs; and it is held that this may be the original form; and that فُلْكٌ may be a contraction, like as عُنْقٌ is [of غُنُقٌ accord. to Sb]: (MF, TA:) it is masc. and fem., (S, O, K, *) and sing. and pl., (S, O, K,) and Ibn-'Abbád says that it has فُلُوكٌ also for a pl.: (O:) [it is said that] it may be sing., and in this case masc.; and pl., and in this case fem.: (IB, Msb:) [but see what here follows:] it occurs in the Kur-án in the following (and other) places: in xxvi. 119, &c.; where it is sing. and masc.: (S, O, TA:) and in [xvi. 14 and] xxxv. 13; where it is pl. [and fem.]: (TA:) and in ii. 159; where it is fem., and may be either pl. or sing.: it seems that, when it is sing., it is regarded as meaning the مَرْكَب, and is therefore made masc.; or the سَفِينَة, and is therefore made fem.: (S, O, TA:) or, (K,) as Sb used to say, (S, O, TA,) the فُلْك that is a pl. [in meaning] is a broken pl. of that, (S, O, K, TA,) i. e. of the فُلْك, (IB, O, K, TA,) that is a sing. [in meaning]: and it is not like الجُنُبُ, which is sing. and pl. [in meaning], and the like thereof (S, O, K, TA) among substs., such as الطِّفْلُ &c.; (S, O, TA;) for فُلْكَانِ has been heard from the Arabs as dual of فُلْكٌ, but not جُنُبَانِ [or the like] as dual of جُنُبٌ [or the like]; and they say that what has not been dualized is not a pl. [form], but [is, or may be,] a homonym, and what has been dualized [is, or may be,] a pl. [form]: (MF, TA:) Sb then says in continuation, (TA,) for فُعْلٌ and فَعَلٌ share in application to one thing [or meaning], as العُرْبُ and العَرَبُ, (S, O, K, TA,) &c.; (S, O, TA;) and as it is allowable for فَعَلٌ to have for its pl. فُعْلٌ, as in the instance of أَسَدٌ and أُسْدٌ, so too فُعْلٌ may have for its pl. فُعْلٌ. (S, O, K, TA.) ↓ فُلْكِىٌّ is a dial. var. of فُلْكٌ; and Abu-d-Dardà read, [in the Kur x. 23,] كُنْتُمْ فِى الْفُلْكِىِّ [When ye are in the ships; where others read فى الفُلْكِ; and where the context shows that the pl. meaning is intended]. (IJ, TA.) A2: [It may also be a pl. of the word next following].

الفَلَكُ The place of the revolving of the stars; (O, K, TA;) [the celestial sphere: but generally imagined by the Arabs to be a material concave hemisphere; so that it may be termed the vault of heaven; or the firmament:] the astronomers say that it is [a term applied to every one, by itself, of] seven أَطْوَاق [by which they mean surrounding spheres], exclusive of the سَمَآء [or sky, as meaning the region of the clouds]; wherein have been set the seven stars [i. e. the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn], in every طَوْق [or surrounding sphere] a star, some being higher than others; revolving therein: (TA:) [it is also commonly imagined that above these is an eighth sphere, called by the astronomers فَلَكُ الثَّوَابِتِ (the sphere of the fixed stars), and by others فَلَكُ الكُرْسِىِّ; and above this, a ninth, called فَلَكُ الأَطْلَسِ and فَلَكُ العَرْشِ, and also called الأَثِيرُ (q. v.):] the pl. is أَفْلَاكٌ [a pl. of pauc.] (S, O, Msb, K, TA) and فُلُكٌ (K, TA) and فُلْكٌ may be another pl., like as أُسْدٌ and خُشُبٌ are pls. of أَسَدٌ and خَشَبٌ (S, O, TA. [Thus accord. to both of my copies of the S, as well as the O and TA: but it may be that أُسْدٌ and خُشْبٌ are mistranscriptions for أُسُدٌ and خُشُبٌ; and therefore that for فُلْكٌ (which is not mentioned as a pl. of فَلَكٌ in the K) we should read فُلُكٌ.]) And فَلَكُ السَّمآءِ signifies The pole of heaven; [generally the north celestial pole;] likened to the pivot, or axis, of the mill-stone. (TA.) b2: Also (i. e. الفَلَكُ) The revolving of the heaven [or celestial sphere]. (TA.) b3: And فَلَكٌ signifies also The circuit, and main part, of any-thing. (K.) b4: And Waves of the sea in a state of commotion, (O, K, TA,) circling, (TA,) and going to and fro. (O, TA.) This, (O, TA,) or what is next mentioned, (TA,) or the place of revolving of the stars, (O,) or the pole of heaven, (TA,) is meant in a trad. where it is said of a horse smitten by the [evil] eye, that he was as though he were turning in a فَلَك. (O, TA.) and Water put in motion by the wind, (O, K, TA,) going to and fro, in a state of commotion: (O, TA:) mentioned by Z. (TA.) b5: Also A hill, or mound, of sand, having around it a wide expanse of land: (IAar, O, K, TA:) or فَلَكٌ مِنَ الرَّمْلِ signifies rugged, round أَجْوِبَة [app. a pl. of جَوْبَة (though I do not find it mentioned as such), and meaning depressed and clear places], of the sands, like [tracts of] what are termed كَذَّان [or soft stones resembling dry pieces of clay], hollowed out by the gazelles. (TA.) b6: And Pieces of land, (S, O, K, TA,) or of sand, (S,) having a circular form, and elevated above what is around them, (S, O, K, TA,) with ruggedness and evenness; (TA;) one whereof is termed ↓ فَلْكَةٌ, (S, O, K, TA,) with the ل quiescent; pl. فِلَاكٌ; (K, TA;) i. e. [this is pl. of فَلْكَةٌ,] like قَصْعَةٌ and قِصَاعٌ: (TA:) in [the book entitled] El-Ghareeb ElMusannaf, [by Aboo-'Amr Esh-Sheybánee, we find] ↓ فَلَكَةٌ and فَلَكٌ, [each] بِالتَّحْرِيك; [accord. to which, فَلَكَةٌ is a n. un., and فَلَكٌ is a coll. gen. n.;] but in “ the Book ” of Sb, [agreeably with the K, we find] ↓ فَلْكَةٌ [as a sing.] and فَلَكٌ [as a quasi-pl. n.], like حَلْقَةٌ and حَلَقٌ. (IB, TA.) b7: See also فَلْكَةٌ, in two places.

فَلِكٌ A slave (AA, O) having a buttock like the فَلْكَة [or whirl] of a spindle (AA, O, K) in shape; (AA, O;) resembling the Zenj; (K;) [for] the buttocks of the Zenj are round: (AA, O:) or large in the buttocks. (TA.) And (O, K) it is said to signify (O) Thick, or coarse of make, in the joints: (O, K:) and loose in the bones; (K;) or weak, loose in the bones, and flaccid; thus expl. by Ibn-'Abbád: (O:) and having a pain in his patella (فِى فَلْكَةِ رُكْبَتِهِ). (O, K.) فُلُكٌ: i. q. فُلْكٌ, q. v.

A2: And a pl. of فَلَكٌ. (K, TA.) فَلْكَةٌ The whirl of a spindle: (MA:) [this is what is meant by the saying that] the فَلْكَة of the مِغْزَل is well known; (K;) [and] is thus called because of its roundness: (S, O:) [it is a piece of wood, generally of a hemispherical form, or nearly so, through the middle of which the upper part of the spindle-pin is inserted:] also pronounced ↓ فِلْكَة: (O, K:) the pl. [of the former] is ↓ فَلَكٌ [or rather this is a quasi-pl. n.] and [that of the latter sing. is] فِلَكٌ. (TA.) b2: And A thing that is made round, or hemispherical, (↓ يُفَلَّكُ, or ↓ يُفْلَكُ, accord. to different copies of the K,) like the فَلْكَة of the spindle, of coarse hair (هُلْب), then the tongue of the young unweaned camel is perforated, [and this thing is inserted into it, (see 2, and see also 4 in art. لهج,)] in order that he may be prevented from sucking. (K. [For فتَخْرِقُ لِسانُ الفَصِيلِ in the CK, I read فَيُخْرَقُ لِسَانُ الفَصِيلِ, as in other copies of the K and in the TA: after these words, the copies of the K have فَيُعْضَدُ بِهِ, app a mistranscription for some phrase meaning فَيُجْعَلُ فِيهِ, which is necessary to complete the explanation.]) b3: And An [eminence such as is termed] أَكَمَهٌ [formed] of one mass of stone; (K, TA;) accord. to ISh, [of] the smaller of the [eminences termed] إِكَام, compact in its head, as though this were the فَلْكَة of a spindle, not giving growth to anything, in height of the measure of two spears or a spear and a half. (TA.) b4: See also فلَكٌ, near the end, in two places. b5: Also Anything circular, (K.) b6: And [particularly] The joint [or cartilaginous disk] between the two vertebræ [i. e. between any one of the vertebrœ and that next to it] of the camel: (K, TA:) and the pl. [or rather quasi-pl. n.] thereof, in this sense and in the last two of the sense following, is ↓ فَلَكٌ. (TA.) b7: [and The cap of the knee; (see فَلِكٌ;) فَلْكَةُ الرُّكْبَةِ signifying the patella: so in the present day.] b8: And The small thing (الهَنَةُ [app. the foramen cæcum, from its round form, for, though the TA adds the epithet النَّاشِئَةُ, which means “ rising,” I think that this addition may be conjectural,]) upon the head of the root of the tongue. (K.) b9: And The side of the [portion of the breast called the] زَوْر [q. v.], and the part thereof that is round, or circular. (K. [K. [But see بَلْدَةٌ: where it is said that “ the فَلَك of the زَوْر of a horse are six in number: ” what they are I have been unable to determine: I incline to think that they may be spiral curls, such as are termed دَوَائِر, pl. of دَائِرَةٌ.]) فِلْكَةٌ: see فَلْكَةٌ, first sentence.

فَلَكَةٌ: see فَلَكٌ, near the end.

فُلْكِىٌّ: see فُلْكٌ, last sentence but one.

فَلَكِىٌّ [Of, or relating to, the فَلَك as meaning the celestial sphere. b2: And] One who occupies himself [as an astronomer, or astrologer] with the science of the stars. (TA.) فُلَيْكَةٌ [dim. of فُلْكٌ, which is sometimes fem. when used as a sing. as well as when used as a pl.,] A small ship: the vulgar say فلوكة [i. e.

فَلُوكَة; whence the Italian “ feluca ”]. (TA.) فَالِكٌ and ↓ مُفَلِّكٌ A girl whose breast is becoming round, (K, TA,) like the فَلْكَة [or whirl (of a spindle)]. (TA.) [And the former is also applied as an epithet to the breast: for] AA says that [the pl.] فَوَالِكُ is applied to breasts (ثُدِىّ) that are less than such as are termed نَوَاهِدُ. (TA.) فَيْلَكُونٌ The شُوبَق [or baker's rolling-pin: see the latter word]: (O, K, TA: [in the CK, السَّوِيقُ is erroneously put for الشُّوبَقُ:]) Az holds both of these words to be arabicized. (O.) b2: And (TA) The بَرْدِىّ [or papyrus]. (S; and K in art. فلكن.) A2: And Tar, or pitch; syn. قَارٌ, or زِفْتٌ. (K. n art. فلكن.) A3: And قَوْسٌ فَيْلَكُونٌ A great bow.
