عور
1 عَوِرَ, (
O,
K,) said of a man, (
O,)
aor. ـْ
inf. n. عَوَرٌ, (
S,
O,
K,) He was, or became, blind of one eye: (
K:) [or he became one-eyed; wanting one eye: or one of his eyes sank in its socket: or one of his eyes dried up: see what next follows:] as also عَارَ,
aor. ـَ and ↓ اعورّ; (
K;) and ↓ اعوارّ. (
Sgh,
K.) And عَوِرَتْ عَيْنُهُ, (
Az,
S,
IKtt,

aor. ـَ (
Az,
S,

IKtt,
TA;) and ↓ اعورّت; (
Az,
S,
IKtt, O;) and ↓ اعوارّت; (
Az,
O,
TA;) His eye became blind: (
TA:) or became wanting: or sank in its socket: (
Msb:) or dried up. (
IKtt,
TA.) Ibn-Ahmar says, أَعَارَتْ عَيْنُهُ أَمْ لَمْ تَعَارَا [Has his eye become blind or has it not indeed become blind?] meaning تَعَارَنْ; but, pausing, he makes it to end with ا: in عَوِرَتْ, the و is preserved unaltered because it is so preserved in the original form, which is اِعْوَرَّتْ, on account of the quiescence of the letter immediately preceding: then the augmentatives, the ا and the teshdeed, are suppressed, and thus the verb becomes عَوِرَ: for that اعورّت is the original form is shown by the form of the sister-verbs, اِسْوَدَّ and اِحْمَرَّ; and the
analogy of verbs significant of faults and the like, اِعْرَجَّ and اِعْمَىَّ as the original forms of عَرِجَ and عَمِىَ; though these may not have been heard. (
S, O. [See also صَيِدَ.])
b2: عَارَتِ الرَّكِيَّةُ,
aor. ـُ [or تَعْوَرُ or تَعَارُ?], (

aor. ـُ (
S,
O,
Msb,)
inf. n. عَوْرٌ: (
IKtt;) and (more commonly,
M) ↓ أَعْوَرَهَا; and ↓ عوّرها; (
S,
M,
IKtt,
Msb;) He put out his eye: (
IKtt,
Msb: *) or made it to sink in its socket. (
Msb.) Some say that عُرْتُ عَيْنَهُ and ↓ أَعَارَهَا [sic] are from عَائِرٌ,
q. v. (
TA.)
b2: عَارَ الرَّكِيَّةَ and ↓ اعارها signify the same as ↓ عوّرها, (
tropical:) He marred, or spoiled, the well, so that the water dried up: (
A,
TA:) or he filled it up with earth, so that the springs thereof became stopped up: and in like manner, عُيُونَ الميَاهِ ↓ عوّر he stopped up the sources of the waters: (
Sh,
TA:) and عَيْنَ الرَّكِيَّةِ ↓ عوّر he filled up the source of the well, so that the water dried up. (
S.)
A3: عَارَهُ,
aor. ـُ and يَعِيرُهُ, (
S,
K,) or the
aor. is not used, or,
accord. to
IJ, it is scarcely ever used, (

S,
O,
K:) or destroyed him, or it. (
K,
TA.) One says, مَا أَدْرِى أَىُّ الجَرَادِ عَارَهُ I know not what man went away with him, or it: (
S,
O,
TA:) or took him, or it. (
TA.) It is said to be only used in negative phrases: but
Lh mentions أَرَاكَ عُرْتَهُ, and عِرْتَهُ, I see thee, or hold thee, to have gone away with him, or it: [see also art. عير:]
IJ says, It seems that they have scarcely ever used the
aor. of this verb because it occurs in a
prov. respecting a thing that has passed away. (
TA.)

3 عاورهُ الشَّىْءَ He did with the thing like as he (the other) did with it: (

inf. n. إِطَاعَةٌ and طَاعَةٌ, and أَجَابَهُ,
inf. n. إِجَابَةٌ and جَابَةٌ; (
Az,
Msb;) [or rather عَارَةٌ is a quasi-
inf. n.; and so is طَاعَةٌ, and جَابَةٌ;] and اعارهُ مِنْهُ; and إِيَّاهُ ↓ عاورهُ; (
K;) [
accord. to the
TK, all signify He lent him the thing: but the second seems rather to signify he lent him of it: and respecting the third, see 3 above.] For three exs., see 10. سَيْفٌ أُعِيرَتْهُ المَنِيَّةُ (

S,
O,
K,) They took the thing, or did it, by turns;
syn. تَدَاوَلُوهُ, (
S,
Mgh,
O,
Msb,
K,) فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمْ: (
S,
O,
TA:) the و is apparent [not changed into ا] in اعـ
ـتوروا because it signifies the same as تعاوروا. (

[And when the men clad in armour interchange the piercing of the kidneys]. (

ـتور Each of the two men [in turn] struck the slain man. (
Mgh.) And تَعَاوَرَتِ الرِّيَاحُ رَسْمَ الدَّارِ (

tropical:) The winds blew by turns upon, or over, the remains that marked the site of the house, or dwelling; (
S, O; *)
syn. تَنَاوَبَتْهُ, (
S,) or تَدَاوَلَتْهُ; one time blowing from the south, and another time from the north, and another time from the east, and another time from the west: (
Az,
TA:) or blew over them perseveringly, so as to obliterate them; (
Lth,
TA;) a signification doubly
tropical: but

ـتَوِرُــهُ حَرَكَاتُ الإِعْرَابِ (

S,
O,
Msb,
K,) of a human being, (
S,
O,) of a man and of a woman: (
TA:) so called because it is abominable to uncover, and to look at, what is thus termed: (
Msb:) said in the
B to be from عَارٌ, meaning مَذَمَّةٌ: (
TA:) [but see what is said
voce عَارِيَّةٌ: the part, or parts, of the person, which it is indecent to expose:] in a man, what is between the navel and the knee: and so in a woman: (
Jel in xxiv. 31:) or, in a free woman, all the person, except the face and the hands as far as the wrists; and respecting the hollow of the sole of the foot, there is a difference of opinion: in a female slave, like as in a man; and what appears of her in service, as the head and the neck and the fore arm, are not included in the term عورة. (
TA.) [العَوْرَةُ المُغَلَّظَةُ means The anterior and posterior pudenda: العَوْرَةُ المُخَفَّفَةُ, the other parts included in the term عورة: so in the law-books.] The covering what is thus termed, in prayer and on other occasions, is obligatory: but respecting the covering the same in a private place, opinions differ. (
TA.) The
pl. is عَوْرَاتٌ: (
S,
O,
Msb:) for the second letter of the
pl. of فَعْلَةٌ as a
subst. is movent only when it is not و nor ى: but some read [in the

S,
O,) which is of the
dial. of Hudheyl. (
Msb.)
b2: A time in which it is proper for the عَوْرَة to appear; each of the following three times; before the prayer of daybreak; at midday; and after nightfall. (

b4: See also عَوَرٌ.
b5: (assumed
tropical:) A woman: because one is ashamed at her when she appears, like as one is ashamed at the pudendum (العَوْرَة) when it appears: (
L,
TA:) or women. (
Msb.)
b6: Any place of concealment (مَكْمَنٌ) [proper] for veiling or covering. (

Msb,
K,) &c., (
K,) or in war or battle, from which one fears (
T,
S,
O,
Msb) slaughter. (
T.)
b8: Sometimes it is applied as an
epithet to an indeterminate
subst.; and in this case it is applied to a
sing. and to a
pl., without variation, and to a
masc. and a
fem., like an
inf. n. (
TA.) It is said in the
Kur [xxxiii. 13], إِنَّ بُيُوتَنَا عَوْرَةٌ (
O,
TA) [Verily our houses are open and exposed: or, as
expl. by
Bd and others, defenceless]: the
epithet being here
sing.; and the
subst. to which it is applied,
pl.: (
TA:) but in this instance it may be a contraction of ↓ عَوِرَةٌ; and thus it has been read: (
Bd:) see عَوِرٌ.
b9: Also, (
K,) or [the
pl.] عَوْرَاتٌ, (
S,) Clefts, or fissures, of mountains. (
S,
K.) عَوَرَةٌ a
subst. meaning ↓ عَوَرٌ [
q. v.]: (
O:) [it is mentioned in the
S as a
subst., and
app., from the context, as signifying عَوَرٌ, i. e. A blindness of one eye: (but
expl. by Golius as meaning the succession of a worse after a better:) after the mention of رَجُلٌ أَعْوَرُ, and the phrase بَدَلٌ أَعْوَرُ and خَلَفٌ أَعْوَرُ, in the
S, it is added, وَالاِسْمُ العَوَرَةُ, or,
accord. to one copy, العَوْرَةُ; and then follows, وَقَدْ عَارَتِ العَيْنُ.]
عُورَانٌ a
pl. of أَعْوَرُ [
q. v.]; as also عِيرَانٌ.
b2: It is also used as a
sing.; رَكِيَّةٌ عُورَانٌ meaning (assumed
tropical:) A well in a state of demolition. (
O,
K.) عَارِيَّةٌ (
S,
Mgh,
O,
Msb,
K) and sometimes عَارِيَةٌ, without teshdeed, (
Msb,
K,) when used in poetry, (
Msb,) and ↓ عَارَةٌ, (
S,
O,
K,) What is taken by persons by turns;
expl. by مَا تَدَاوَلُوهُ بَيْنَهُمْ: (
K:) [generally meaning a loan: and the act of lending;] the putting one in possession of the use of a thing without anything given in exchange: (
KT, and
Kull p. 262:) the returning of the thing thus termed is obligatory, when the thing itself remains in existence; and if it has perished, then one must be responsible for its value,
accord. to Esh-
Sháfi'ee, but not
accord. to Aboo-Haneefeh: (
TA:)
pl. [of the first] عَوَارِىُّ, (
S,
O,
Msb,
K,) and [of the second] عَوَارٍ. (
Msb,
K.) A poet says, وَالْعَوَارِىُّ قَصَارٌ أَنْ تُرَدْ إِنَّمَا أَنْفُسُنَا عَارِيَّةٌ [Our souls are only a loan: and the end of loans is their being given back: تُرَدْ being for تُرَدَّ]. (
S, O.) عَارِيَّةٌ is of the measure فَعْلِيَّةٌ:
Az says that it is a rel.
n. from عَارَةٌ, which is a
subst. from
إِعَارَةٌ: (
Mgh, *
Msb:)
Lth says that what is thus called is so called because it is a disgrace (عار) to him who demands it; and
J says the like; and some say that it is from عَارَ الفَرَسُ, meaning, “the horse went away from his master: ” but both these assertions are erroneous; since عاريّة belongs to art. عور, for the Arabs say هُمْ يَتَعَاوَرُونَ العَوَارِىَّ, meaning they lend [loans], one to another; and عَارٌ and عَارَ الفَرَسُ belong to art. عير: therefore the correct assertion is that of
Az. (
Msb.) عَوَارٌ (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K) and ↓ عُوَارٌ (
Az,
S,
Msb,
K) and ↓ عِوَارٌ (
K) A fault; a defect; an imperfection; a blemish; something amiss; (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K;) in an article of merchandise, (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,) and in a garment, or piece of cloth, (
TA,) and in a slave, (
Msb,) and in a beast: (
TA:) or in a garment, or piece of cloth, a hole, and a rent; (
Lth,
Mgh,
Msb,
K,
TA;) and so in the like, and in a house or tent and the like; (
TA;) and in a garment, or piece of cloth, also a burn; and a rottenness: (
Mgh:) and some say that عَوَارٌ, with fet-h, is only in goods, or commodities, or articles of merchandise. (
Msb.) Yousay سِلْعَةٌ ذَاتُ عَوَارٍ, and ↓ عُوَارٍ,
accord. to
Az, An article of merchandise having a fault, or the like. (
S.) [See also عَوَرٌ.]

syn. رَمَصٌ: (
Msb:) or both signify a fluid matter that makes the eye smart, as though a mote, or the like, had fallen into it: (

S,
O,
K,) in the eye: (
S:) or (
TA, in the
K “ and ”) عَائِرٌ signifies pimples, or small pustules, in the lower eyelid: (
K:) a
subst., not an
inf. n., nor an
act. part. n.: (
TA:) the
pl. of ↓ عُوَّارٌ is عَوَاوِيرُ, and, by poetic license, عَوَاوِرُ. (
TA.) One says ↓ بِعَيْنِهِ عُوَّارٌ, meaning, In his eye is a mote, or the like. (
S.)
b2: عَيْنٌ عَائِرَةٌ An eye in which is the fluid matter called ↓ عُوَّار: but when the eye has this, you do not say of it عَارَتْ. (
Lth.)

K;) or that at which the sight is confounded, or perplexed, by reason of the multitude thereof, as though it filled, or satisfied, the eye, and put it out: (
S, O:) [and
A'Obeyd says the like:] or,
accord. to
As, the Arab in the Time of Ignorance used, when his camels amounted to a thousand, to put out an eye of one of them; and hence, by عَائِرَةُ العَيْنِ they meant a thousand camels, whereof one had an eye put out. (
TA.)
