And one says, هُمَا ابْنَا عَمٍّ [meaning Each of them two is a son of a paternal uncle of the other]; (S, IB, Msb, K;) because each of them says to the other, يَا ابْنَ عَمِّى; (IB;) and in like manner, ابْنَا خَالَةٍ; (S, IB, Msb, K;) because each of them says to the other, يَا ابْنَ جَالَتِى: (IB:) but one may not say, ↓ هُمَا ابْنَا عَمَّةٍ, nor ابْنَا خَالٍ; (S, IB, Msb, K;) because one of them says to the other, يَا ابْنَ خَالِى, but the latter says to the former, يَا ابْنَ عَمَّتِى. (IB.) And [عَمٌّ signifies also A paternal great uncle, &c.: therefore] one says, هُمَا ابْنَا عَمٍّ

(TA.) b3: And عَمٌّ signifies also Tall palm-trees, (K, TA,) of full tallness and abundance and density; (TA;) and ↓ عُمٌّ signifies the same: (K, TA:) [or so نَخْلُ عَمٌّ and عُمٌّ, which is perhaps meant in the K: for] عُمٌّ is an epithet applied to palm-trees, (S, K, TA,) and is pl. of عَمِيمَةٌ [fem. of عَمِيمٌ]. (S, K.) b4: And All [herbs such as are termed]

عُشْب. (Th, K.) عَمَّ in the phrase عَمَّ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ [Respecting what do they ask one another? in the Kur lxxviii. 1] is originally عَمَّا, [for عَنْ مَا,] the ا being elided in the interrogation [after the prep. عَنْ]. (S.) عُمٌّ: see عَمٌّ, last sentence but one: A2: and see also عُمُمٌ.

عُمِّىٌّ, like قُمِّىٌّ, (K, TA,) with damm, but in the M عم, (TA, [in which this word is thus doubtfully written, and has been altered, perhaps from عَمِّىٌّ, for قُمِّىٌّ is a word which I do not find in any case other than this, and if any word of the measure فُعْلِىٌّ were meant, أُمِّىٌّ would be a much better instance of similarity of form,]) an epithet applied to a man, i. q. عَامٌّ [app. meaning Of the common sort; like عَامِّىٌّ]: (K, TA:) and قُصْرِىٌّ or قَصْرِىٌّ, (accord. to different copies of the K,) in the M قَصْرى, (TA, [there thus written, only with a fet-hah to the ق and the sign of quiescence to the ص,]) signifies [the contr., i. e.] خَاصٌّ.

(KT. [The word in this sense is often used in the lexicons, but is expl. in few of them, as being conventional and post-classical.]) العَامَّةُ is the contr. of الخَاصَّةُ [i. e. the former signifies The commonalty, or generality of people; the people in common or in general; the common people; the common sort; or the vulgar]: (S, Msb, K:) the ة is a corroborative: (Msb:) and ↓ المَعَمَّةُ signifies the same as العَامَّةُ: (IAar, TA voce سَامٌّ:) the pl. of عَامَّةٌ is عَوَامُّ, (Msb,) and ↓ عَمَمٌ is quasi-pl. n. of عَامَّةٌ as contr. of خَاصَّةٌ.

(K.) مُعِمٌّ: see the next preceding paragraph.

مِعَمٌّ, with kesr to the first letter, (K, TA, [in the CK, مِعَمُّ خَيْرِ بكَسْرِ اَوَّلِهِ is erroneously put for مِعَمٌّ بِكَسْرِ أَوَّلِهِ خَيّرٌ,]) One who is good, or very good, (K, TA,) who includes mankind in common, in general, or universally, within the compass of his goodness, (Kr, T, K, TA,) and his superabundant bounty; (T, TA;) and ↓ عَمَمٌ signifies the same: (K:) [see also an ex. and explanation voce مِثَمٌّ, in art. ثم:] مِعَمٌّ is almost the only instance of an epithet of the measure مِفْعَلٌ from a verb of the measure فَعَلَ, except مِلَمٌّ [and مِثَمٌّ, with both of which it is coupled].

(TA.) It is said, by Z, [but with hardly any reason that I can see,] to be formed by transposition from the letters فوح thus combined. (TA.)
